Shy One - U.M.P. Lyrics

In 1983...
A prophet was born…

[Chorus: x32]
Shy One

[Verse 1:]
I feel myself growing up
To be nothing
It's like my soul
Doesn't want any part with me
I'm stuck all alone
Thinkin' and talkin' to myself
And I cannot even roam
Without a single thought that
Will make me in the spot
Putting light on anything
That is wanting me to drop
But I will not
Let me drop
We will stay
At the top
In my mind
I'm confused
I don't know
What to do
I will live
And soon die
Nobody will cry
Who would know
Who I am
I am nothing
That's the end
The pressure will soon
Rise up in the deep
Of the part in the veins
That makes me insane
Can't lose control
Am I losing my mind?
And reacting to slow
Never get recognized all that I've done
Just working so hard with no play, no fun
Someone please and open your mind
So you can see my kingdom

[Chorus: x16]
Shy One

[Verse 2:]
All of these questions
That haven't been answered
To why I am feeling
This lonliness after
But then it's not fun
They're taking advantage
And I have run
My life is a book and it
Gets a page turn
You gotta look deep inside or else
You will not learn
But you were mislead
I knew this would happen
So tie me up and
Let me burn
Maybe this is all that I need
And I can not even make up of the best
When you put me to the test
And you keep on blinding me
To the point where you can't see
I'm a little lost soul, I'm an unborn seed
As the days go by
I feel myself fly by nights
And I feel all alone
And this is how I grow
Feel my eyes just move
And look the other way
You can put me down
Cause I am here to lay

[Chorus: x23]
Shy One
