Awards Night

All my life leading up to this Foreign in the street kids While my mother and my father are watching it Twenty nights say you're twenty five Thats the company line But a lion's just a lion with the fight out of it See me shake in my tired old frame Borrow white suit My eyes staring knives at you Saying this is a war This is a war This is a war Between my body and my heart This is a war Between integrity and art Suck my blood Get your teeth in deep Theres some left in me But I'm getting pretty old and I will cease to be Do you hear How the orchestra breaks Every line of space Every minute, every second that I put in place See me shake in my tired old frame Borrow white suit My eyes staring knives at you Saying this is a war This is a war This is a war Between my body and my heart This is a war Between integrity and art This is a war Between my body and my heart This is a war Between integrity and art This is a war This is a war This is a war This is a war
