I was born to perform in another life
I was born to die unknown
And the life that I choose
It won t make it to the news
Please let me die alone
I dreamed I was like Freddie Mercury
But sure he was one of a kind
I can t lie I can t fake
Guess I m more like Nick Drake
Not the worst you can find
Help me in time I don t need a home
Just a place I can write
Because it s all in my head you know
It's a place I can hide
Should art be about my inner self
I can t speak for a crowd
When the words they come out
And that s an art in itself
How many lives can a man uphold
How many dreams can he chase
Or is it all about letting go
And just keeping your face
I was born to be alive
And to die on a stage
I don t care about the gold
Let me sing 'till I m old
And let me learn about life
Because it s all in my head you know
It's a place I can hide
A place I can hide
A place I can hide
