The need to change your face
Smile every day and hope to be looking best
The need to know your place
In this crowd of strangers
And look apart from the rest
You move the way that the poor wind blows
And you're singing
Your life away in this sleeping town
You fade from these streets at night
No name remembered
Significance won't make it better
With skin but nothing flesh
No definition
Actions are meaningless
They all stood up and left
A well-known stranger
All your close distant friends
Felt like a king but now you're feeling low
You move the way that the poor wind blows
And you're singing
Your life away in this sleeping town
You fade from these streets at night
No name remembered
Significance won't make it better
The passionate compared to the weak
It's easier just to not move your feet
This one way fame won't fit for all
The harder you try the more you'll fall
And you're singing
Your life away in this sleeping town
You fade from these streets at night
No name remembered
Significance won't make it better
(And we'll sing it loud another time)
Your life away in this sleeping town
(And we'll sing it loud another time)
You fade from these streets at night
(And we'll sing it loud another time)
No name remembered
Significance won't make it better
