| Am I just a number on a page
|
| An alphabetical appearing name
|
| Someone just to tell you it’s okay
|
| How kind for you to ask that I don’t change
|
| All my life the world has passed me by
|
| Wallflowers always stand aside
|
| But not this time, not this time
|
| No, I’m not alright
|
| Everybody dies, but do they live
|
| A sympathetic candle in the wind
|
| When all is said and done, what did I give
|
| If when the trial came, I ran and hid
|
| All my life the world has passed me by
|
| Wallflowers always stand aside
|
| But not this time, not this time, not this time
|
| No, I’m not alright
|
| No second chance and no rehearsals
|
| There’s only one take
|
| So make your move, the window’s closing
|
| No time to play it safe
|
| La da da da da da, la da da da da da
|
| La da da da da da da
|
| La da da da da da, la da da da da da
|
| La da da da da da da
|
| There is nothing else left to be done
|
| 'Cause when the trial is you, you cannot run
|
| Too ashamed to stay where I’ve come from
|
| I will not remain as I’ve become
|
| All my life the world has passed me by
|
| Wallflowers always stand aside
|
| But not this time, not this time, not this time
|
| No, I’m not alright
|
| I’m not alright |
