Mascara (eyeliner) hides the sleepless nights |
|
Years of abuse, the downs and highs |
|
A lonely drunk staggers on stage |
|
Weathered and worn, battered and broken, |
|
I feel my age |
|
Like a puppet on strings, look he strums and he sings, |
|
I feel like a cartoon |
|
I'm alone on the stage, |
|
I'm the man on the moon |
|
I'm the deer in the headlights, |
|
I'm the fish in the bowl |
|
I'm on automatic pilot, |
|
I am remote controlled |
|
Just a second guitarist, playing on the 3rd string |
|
I'm the disclaimer, |
|
I'm a walking (fucking) routine |
|
I'm happily a cog, stand me up, plug me in |
|
Like a robot |
|
I play all the songs, with a grin |
|
I am Eric |
|
