A Nobody

I started talking to a young homeless guy who was begging on the tube in London. I asked him about his story. All he had to say was "I'm just a nobody". I guess we all feel like that sometimes, but we have the support of others to help us get through it. This is for all the lonely people…

A NOBODY

Looking for a needle

In a pile of hay

Obviously

There must be a better way

Yes’s turn to maybes

Certainty to doubt

I’m getting cold

Now the fire is burning out

CHORUS

For the life of me

When will I learn

That nothing comes for free?

For the life of me

When will l own

This hard reality?

I’m a nobody

Just a nobody

Searching for a reason

Never time to rest

Getting it wrong

Failing every single test

Everyone knows better

Everywhere I go

Falling again

From this endless vertigo

CHORUS

Trouble gets divided

Then multiplied again

I’m feeling frozen out

With just myself to blame

Stuck inside a pattern

I can’t walk away

I can’t do this by myself

These walls getting higher

Every single day

CHORUS
