Standing on a stage Struggling to get his instrument in tune People throwing vegetables and calling him a fraud As they fall out of the room He awakes at night with the fear That this all might just disappear But it scares him just the same To think that his could all remain
Understanding why We do what we do Why we put ourselves What we put ourselves through When there's no longer comfort In your comfort zone And you feel Like you're all alone
Self absorption never ending Still the truth it keeps on bending Feel like I'm pretending To be something that I'm not I gotta smooth it like Al Greene Get funky like J.B. Then stand up on my own two feet And learn how to be me
I'm contradicting myself I'm stealing from the past I'm trying to slow it down Because it feels like it's too fast And I'm awaking with the fear That this all might disappear But it scares me just the same To think that this could all remain
Understanding why We do what we do Why we put ourselves What we put ourselves through When there's no longer comfort In your comfort zone And you feel Like you're all alone
Like you're all alone All alone All alone
Understanding why We do what we do Why we put ourselves What we put ourselves through When there's no longer comfort In your comfort zone And you feel Like you're all alone
Well you're not alone Not alone No you're not alone anymore Anymore Anymore Anymore
