[00:00.00]
[00:12.75]There's nothing funny about you slipping away
[00:17.38]It's nothing funny how you're spending your days
[00:21.93]But you're laughing like a kid at a carnival
[00:30.91]I watched you stumbling around this dusty town
[00:35.29]I heard your bottle talking way too loud
[00:39.90]As the Federales tried to hunt you down
[00:43.78]For something you can't remember what was about
[00:52.72]The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off
[00:58.76]The band plays you off
[01:02.32]He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore
[01:13.87]I used to watch you on the late night scene
[01:18.52]The timely rescue of a metal teen
[01:22.87]Six strings were strumming rhythm and lead
[01:26.91]And that hadn't occurred to me
[01:32.00]When I met you I was 22
[01:36.45]Trying so hard to play it cool
[01:41.04]But there was so much that I needed to say
[01:44.78]And nothing came out the right way
[01:53.83]The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off
[01:59.76]The band plays you off
[02:03.70]He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore
[02:12.21]The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off
[02:17.85]The band plays you off
[02:21.89]He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore
[02:33.00]There's nothing elegant in being a drunk
[02:37.86]It's nothing righteous being 60 and a punk
[02:42.19]But when you're looking in the mirror do you see
[02:46.13]That kid that you used to be
[02:51.20]Broke and working in a record store
[02:55.69]Daydreaming about the upcoming tour
[03:00.13]Were you happier when you were poor
[03:05.17]Were you happier when you were poor
[03:13.30]The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off
[03:19.05]The band plays you off
[03:23.09]He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore
[03:31.47]The curtain falls to applause and the band plays you off
[03:37.11]The band plays you off
[03:41.11]He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore
