Falling Behind
Noonday Demon
I just want to be someone
Sinking like the setting sun
No matter how I try to run
I keep falling behind
Yea, I’m falling behind where I'm supposed to be
Think I've had it up to the ceiling
'Nother phone call, 'nother meeting
I punch on out then I do It again
It’s only 10 o’clock, but I’m dreaming
I’m somewhere that I’m not and it’s freeing
My only hope is in playin’ pretend
All my friends have gone or wed
In the dust, stuck in my head
I just wish the pain would end
CHORUS
I walk out with no coat and it’s freezing
Scanning neon signs for some meaning
Spent so many years feeling like a drone
Invisible in the city
Blend into the crowd, you won't miss me
A million people make you more alone
And even though I tried my best
All I got was damn depressed
I'd bide my time, but there's none left
I can't take this
Just can't fake this
No more
No more
If I wake, this
just might make this
No more
No more I wanna be free
CHORUS
