I could sing about destiny
I could sing about love
I could sing about my biggest fears
But I don't want to cause a fuss
Sing like I was born into poverty
Like I'm already out of luck
Sing about the countless mistakes I've made
About the awful things I've done
Now I'm standing at the station and my battery's running low
And I've dragged myself back out of bed to play another show
Maybe tonight I'll make new friends and not sit at the bar alone
Maybe I'll be polite
Shake hands and say my goodbyes and make my way back home
I could sing for the common man
Sing like I've had enough
I could sing for departed friends
Sing like I'd ever give a f*ck
I could sing like I've been drinking
Like I already had too much
Sing some great romantic poetry
As if I'd ever fall in love
Now I'm standing at the station and my battery's running low
And I've dragged myself back out of bed to play another show
Maybe tonight I'll make new friends and not sit at the bar alone
Maybe I'll be polite
Shake hands and say my goodbyes and make my way back home
