Lyrics

I saw a deadman walking
Through a packed nightclub
Glossy eyed and uninspired
Watching in awe of all them pretty people
Dancing like they ain't gonna die
Made his way to the bar
Posted up next to me
Checked his watch before he ordered a drink
Laughed at the size of the pour
Signalled for another
Took it back eyes wide
Like he just woke from a dream
There's something so familiar about him
Perhaps a failed conversation or two
Or maybe it's just bad judgement
Cause them neon lights
Made him look like you
Flashback struck and I'm a kid again
You spent your fair share of life on the road
One thing I always wondered but never asked
Did them airports ever feel like home?
Advertisements buzz on as i came back to
Asked your lookalike what he did for work
Said I'm a union man, son
Just passing through town
Fighting to give these people what they deserve
There's something so familiar about him
Perhaps a failed conversation or two
Or maybe it's just bad judgement
Cause them neon lights
Made him look like you
The reflection in his eyes
Like a punishment
A life sentence behind a steering wheel
Longing for a meaning down those lines
Take it or leave with the truth
It's in my blood now
I can hear it, I can feel it, I can taste it
Oh it's a thirst, i can't
I can't satisfy
There's something so familiar about him
Perhaps a failed conversation or two
About that dead man walking
Cause in the right light
I guess I look like him tooI saw a deadman walking
Through a packed nightclub
Glossy eyed and uninspired
Watching in awe of all them pretty people
Dancing like they ain't gonna die
Made his way to the bar
Posted up next to me
Checked his watch before he ordered a drink
Laughed at the size of the pour
Signalled for another
Took it back eyes wide
Like he just woke from a dream
There's something so familiar about him
Perhaps a failed conversation or two
Or maybe it's just bad judgement
Cause them neon lights
Made him look like you
Flashback struck and I'm a kid again
You spent your fair share of life on the road
One thing I always wondered but never asked
Did them airports ever feel like home?
Advertisements buzz on as i came back to
Asked your lookalike what he did for work

Just passing through town
Fighting to give these people what they deserve
There's something so familiar about him

Or maybe it's just bad judgement

Longing for a meaning down those lines
Take it or leave with the truth

I can't satisfy
There's something so familiar about him
Perhaps a failed conversation or two
About that dead man walking
Cause in the right light
I guess I look like him too
