The Bravery - The Spectator lyrics
rate me<br>
The birds are up when he collapses through the door<br />
Spilling out in constellations on the floor<br />
Soaked in liquor he's soft as bread<br />
And everything that's left of him to beckon to his bed<br />
<br />
He is a nocturnal always alone<br />
But you'll speak in secret codes<br />
That he has never known<br />
In this world, but not of it<br />
So he watches from above it<br />
A visitor here, this is not home<br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus]</i><br />
I am the spectator<br />
I can see the world passing by from here<br />
I am just a child, to a man<br />
Back to the dust where i began<br />
I was never even here at all<br />
I am the spectator<br />
I am the spectator<br />
<br />
His eyes, like two cats, scratching in his head<br />
Begging him for sleep, starving for a bed<br />
But sleep, it never comes<br />
so he ticks the time away<br />
Hour after hour, hear them play their bells go<br />
<br />
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time <i>[x2]</i><br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus]</i><br />
I am the spectator<br />
I can see the world passing by from here<br />
I am just a child, to a man<br />
Back to the dust where i began<br />
I was never even here at all<br />
I am the spectator<br />
I am the spectator<br />
I am the spectator<br />
<br />
And the bells go<br />
Chime chime chime, ticking ticking time <i>[x3]</i><br />
<br />
<i>[Chorus]</i><br />
I am the spectator<br />
I can see the world passing by from here<br />
I am just a child, to a man<br />
Back to the dust where i began<br />
I was never even here at all<br />
I am the spectator<br />
I am the spectator<br />
I am the spectator
<br><br><br><br>
