The Rival's Dilemma - Ayreon, Marko Hietala

[High Whistle: Troy Donockley

Cello: Maaike Peterse

Flute: Jeroen Goossens]

So… what if they are right

And he’s so remarkable

How does that affect me?

Ever since I was a child

It all came so easy

I never had to try

If he’s as brilliant as they say

How will I be noticed

Now I’m not so special… anymore

I’m not sure why I’m afraid

No, he won’t beat me

Not without a fight, no!

One day I’ll show them I am the genius

One day the whole world will know

One day I’ll show them who he really is

One day they’ll know
