The Nobodies

Nobodies

Good morning
Where am I?
Are we far from the venue?
And is this Stuttgart or Cologne?
That's alright, you stay put
Just point me to a cafê
Besides I'd rather walk alone

Another score for a guy on tour
I'm not here to play but to lay
Apart from free beer, it's the reason I'm here
A walking talking cliché

Always uptight around people; can't look them in the eyes
Playing with a band's my only way to socialize
Trapped in my own head but I still need a human touch
Every man's an island so go ahead & judge

Some body come save me
I need a mirror to exist
Nobodies can save my life
Some body come save me
I'm standing one night at a time
Nobodies can save my life

I took up the guitar just so I wouldn't have to talk
To people I don't already know

I sing my songs & they sing along
They think they know who I am
They don't pick my brain
I don't have to explain
Just a man in a traveling band

That's all I have to live up to
They dig the mystique
I see it as symbioses
Every body's unique

Some body come save me
Give me a reason to go on
Nobodies can save my life
Some body come save me
I'm standing one night at a time
Nobodies can save my life
