Many repetitions that can work well with the appropriate music.

"... and just give me the grace" makes this line ironic, same as "you don't have to believe what you've never heard", yet without leading anywhere. Maybe I just don't get the message.

"wonderwall" seems to be yet another reference to Oasis. To me it doesn't make any more sense here than there.

Whatever: your lyrics have got a cool 'stomping' rhythm. That's at least half it, isn't it.

Cheers,
Bernd
