Eraser Face

Verse 1:

You're disruptive and sad

You're quick to the cut

Day by day

You stand hill top high

And scream to those below

Take a glance up above

Every thing's ahead

Men to men alike

Nobody asked you

Nobody wants you

Everybody's a reject

Every thing's a joke

Laughing so taboo

Dropping dead off hand

Missiles raining

Exploding uninvited

You're a passed man

You aren't useful to me anymore.



Chorus:

When things glow

You take a step back

When steps crack

You fall on through

When friends collapse

You drop to your knees

When the world crumbles

You rise to your feet



Your life never got on paper

Your voice never got on tape

After fifty years of nothing

You completely lost your appeal.



Verse 2:

Follow through

It's new to you

A lot to learn,

It's all you've got

A string and a clip

A stick with a tip

Where've you gotten to?

Atop the skies

Falling down mountains

Blood keeps tumbling

Teeth keep grinding

Where's the progress?

Where are my results?

We're not so alike

It's taken me some time

and last I've stolen mine

Yet how can I define

that I'd follow a bass line

'Til the end of time

If it sounded just right.



Chorus -- Solo/Variation



Mini-Verse:

Century man

Stuck in the sand

It's a little late

To get your story down



No regrets

Just disgrace

I'll leave you be

I'm not interested in you.



Chorus Variation:

When men glow

You take a step away

When a person cracks

You run for your life

When family collapses

You drop to your gut

When the world explodes

You become nothing



Your life never got on paper

Your voice never got on tape

After fifty years of nothing

You completely lost yourself.



End.
