I'm a young, young man, with delusions of age It's not someone I became, I've just always been this way And if I keep on trying to be something more than that Then I'll never have a chance to relax
I'm a lonely man, with a girl who's far away That might sound a bit cliché, but I mean it when I say That if I keep on trying to pretend that's not a fact Then I'll never have a chance to relax
I'm an angry man, I feel useless all the time I could bottle it away, and go on feeding you a line But if I keep on holding on to putting on that act Then I'll never have a chance to relax
//Silent, the cornerseat dinner for one //Heavy, the build-up of tar in the lungs //Dreaming my teeth will be falling out, seven by one
I'm a missing screw in a shelf that's falling down At the time you need me most you might find I'm not around But I am always trying to be something more than that So that we might have a chance to relax
