I’m excited to release this song today! I picture the singer in this song looking like Russell Brand (so no, not autobiographical) but the idea that we sometimes see the unfortunate truth about an area of our lives and just keep going on the same does ring true for me. Hope you enjoy it! https://tr.ee/Bj4Plhq2RX
Lyrics
I’ve been playing in a one man show
Got no money or a place to go
All I know’s I want to take you home tonight
Sun is shining and I shouldn’t leave
But Minnesota, it won’t wait for me
To give the people what they came to see tonight
[Chorus]
And we rise and we fall
for the people we forget to call
I’ll be true when I come to the end of the line
If I stayed like I should
Then you’d find out that I’m just no good
It’d be true that I’m never gonna make you mine
Curtains up and I play my tunes
This one you know and this one is new
When it’s over gonna have a few tonight
See you smile at my vacant stare
Do you know me, do I even care?
I’m just hoping to get out of here tonight
[Chorus]
Curtain falls for a final show
Hall is empty and I’m moving slow
The gear is packed with nowhere to go tonight
[Alt-Chorus]
In the end, I’m alone
just singer in a one man show
And in truth, I was never gonna make you mine
Guess I got, what I deserved
Like the people that I let get hurt
And I’m sorry but I’m never gonna make it right
Yeah I’m sorry, thank you very much, goodnight
