'I'm just a man'
That's what you say, oh when you lie to me
But you're half of it
That's the part that I can see
How can you wake up
With that weight you carry on your back?
You say “It's okey, no worries”
Then another heart attack
You know me well, it's not a lie
So why are you running away from my side?
Why, oh why this selfishness?
Show me mercy, please, show me regret
You’d better keep your mouth shut, block that twisted mind
You should know that you’re a psychopath
Excuse me sir: are we over now?
You look so sweet but you drag me down
What is it you see each day?
When you look into the mirror’s face?
Why is it I see a different side of you,
Images I wish I could erase?
You say you're just a man – just a simple man
Wondering what to do with life – oh
You wrote a song where you say you're selfish, cold as ice – cold as ice
and that's the easiest way to not face reality as it is – uh
So why is it that bad to love? – love
You've got the proof: i'm still into you...
--- Instrumental break ---
What is it you see each day
When you look into the mirror’s face?
Nothing fancy’s ever coming back to you
Cannot wait to meet the one to take my place
Excuse me sir: are we over now?
Should I give up or freak you out?
