Styx - The Greater Good Lyrics
[First Officer:]
You could lay down, in this hole you dug
Just fade away into the red sand
But we all know, it's not who you are
You've come too far to be stranded on this star
But we're not here to take a prize
You know, just open up your eyes
The things that got us here have little weight
Perhaps a chance to be a man
You dream to be, you know you can
Come on, suit up and we won't let you fail
For the greater good
For the greater good
For the greater good
[Locomotive:]
I hear what you're saying
You know that I do
But this is so much bigger than anyone imagined -
Can't you see?
[First Officer:]
But you are not here on your own
We've got your back, we'll make it home
We're wide awake, there's so much to be done
[Locomotive:]
If you believe then I will too
And if the pieces come unglued
They'll know we gave it everything we had
For the greater good
For the greater good
For the greater good
For the greater good
[First Officer:]
One day this place may be our grave
But if we die, by the gods, we'll be saved
(We will be saved, we will be saved)
We'll be saved
(We will be saved, we will be saved)
For the greater good
[First Officer:]
We need you back with us
For the greater good
[Locomotive:]
I believe, I believe
For the greater good
[First Officer:]
'Cause you know you're strong enough
For the greater good
[Locomotive:]
Yeah, everything's gonna be alright

Styx The Greater Good Comments
Dennis DeYoung was way aheD of his time and not appreciated by the band!
This song is amazing, and it’s great that you guys are still making to this day.
one of the best bands ever.
Thank you
shaw sings end of story you dont ilke it good bye
Great track, very well done. Love hearing both Lawrence and Tommy "dueting" on the song. Plus having a positive message.
I think that's one of the biggest difference between having LG over DDY. The music is more uplifting with Lawrence Gowan. Dennis was always criticising and/or preaching about something in his his songs when they weren't love ballads...🎶🎸 🙂
Deborah 78. He is fine but this does not come close to the feelings that the music brought to us true Styx fans!
Kevin Spacey is innocent
Lee Oswald So is Trump.
Robert Wolenski so true
What are you idiots talking about?
@MaskedMan66 4 real man hahahaha just wtf😂😂😂☝️
