Its Your Turn
Up here on the ledge
Im getting pushed to the edge
People line up behind me to step into my shoes,
Up here in the precipice
Im getting close to my nemesis
People fighting each other to jump into my blues
Theres a young kid inside me somewhere
He stays up all night, a vampire that never dies,
With the blood and the moon in his eyes
I hear his voice when Im comin down,
Sleep is for fools, whe never see the sunrise,
Who never get to live twice.
I was a face in a magazine,
When you were still playin with your plasticine,
Now youre doggin my tail, ridin the slipstream,
You can take the fans and the enemies
The little girls who squeeze and tease
Then pass on their social disease,
Go get your penicillin.
I know you young and dumb,
I know where youre comin from.
Dont know where youre goin to,
But I bin there same as you,
Youre running out of ideas,
And new hats to try on.
I know you middle age
Same song, different page,
I know what youre goin through
Made the same mistakes as you ,
All you want is some hope
And a shoulder to cry on.
Theres a stranger inside me somewhere
That shadow behind me, dont even look like me.
An echoed apology.
Hes a wolf in sheep disguise,
I wake up in places I dont even recognize,
Pretender in paradise.
Its your turn, step up and take it
If youve got the guts to hang on
You can make.
Cmon, cmon, come on,
Ooooh take it!
