I've been thinking againAbout how I tend to fade outLike the stars in the skyWhen there's too much light down on the groundI disappear without a traceIn shame, I try to hide my faceCause when asked to do something greatI blend into the crowdI've been sinking againIn that dangerous part of my mindThe one where hopelessness, envyAnd self deprecation resideAnd it pulls me in like I've stepped in sandAnd each thought I have is a marching bandDiscordant notes, but with a soldier's stanceAnd so I fight this warI've been lying againTo myself and my friends for some timeI've been playing this gameWhere I take a name I get assignedAnd I flail my arms, but speak no wordsI hear guesses, saying "I'm not sure"But when the game is over, and it's not my turnThe charade rages onLetras de cancionesI've been smiling againTo strangers I meet on the streetEach one has a storyA scarring that makes them completeAnd as they board their bus or ride their trainI wonder if I picked their brainsIf I would find out that we're all the sameA people out of loveI've been singing againTo the dismay of a couple of menThey say they've seen it beforeAnd I'm looking for pity againI know I may not break into new groundBut I'm sure I'm making honest soundsSo don't pigeonhole me with that goddamn nounYeah, keep your adjectives awayNow I'm waking up on tile floorsAnd I rest my back on wooden doorsAnd I've laid my head down here beforeSo it's here I'll call my home From Letras Mania
