Sidewalk

Sidewalk - No Use For A Name

Sitting in the lazy chair

The channels look the same

I realize that the roof is stable and start to feel ashamed

It's cold outside but don't ask me the weather's fine in here

Ask the man around the corner who lives his life in fear

Two hundred pennies forty ounces later he's okay

He doesn't have the pressure to think about the next day

But I bet it's something cold and hard and grey

Complaining and whining all the time

I never seem to quit

Always lying to myself

A shoe that always fits

Never is a long time and it seems like I'm a clock

Ticking like a time bomb someday soon his life will stop

I listen to the radio but nothing good is on

My friends are calling up but I'm pretending that I'm gone

We're all pieces in a chess game he's a pawn

I wonder how it turned out like this

No one seems to care

The scale has tipped me fortunate is

This what we call fair

But I've never had the mind to know it

Never had the guts to show it

I know one thing his dream is my nightmare
