Dire Straits pt. 1 |
| He wraps a smile 'round his tired face |
| To hide the marks of the walk of life through dire straits |
| No brothers in arms |
| The sultan of mood swing |
| Moving in tune with the melodies that truth sings |
| He knows the music will stop |
| And he’s okay with that, he can face the facts |
| He just wants it to mean something to these people when he fades to black |
| And he’s not sure, fighting for a lost cause and effect |
| He tries to find clarity behind locked doors in his head |
| And if you saw him, you wouldn’t know it |
| Hell, his friends don’t |
| He’s just another lost soul who blocks the world out with his headphones |
| Words signify nothing, he doesn’t feel your complements |
| Doesn’t believe the things you say when you try to build his confidence |
| There is no success, only an inability to realise a goal |
| This blackjack of all trades playing with the rest, he might just fold |
| He can see what his opponents hold, read their tactics, call their bluffs |
| But he can’t play his own hand right, it’s not enough |
| It’s the way he plays, convinced he’s lost from the first turn |
| He reads the other players fine from the skirts to the hurt words |
| The smirks to the T-shirts, the nervous to the certain |
| Every apple has it’s earthworms |
| Sorry, he gets carried away when he’s writing in the third person |
