Seems like your heart
|
stops working
|
The minute they close the curtain
|
And take off your mask
|
And take off your costume
|
And if anyone asks
|
you're taking a small break
|
Drinking some coffee
|
But everyone knows
|
what you're doing
|
Seems like the bus moves slower
|
Just cause you got somewhere to go
|
So you take a few pills
|
in Beverly Hills
|
But if anyone asks
|
you've got a prescription
|
You got an addiction
|
Who do you think that
|
you're fooling
|
John Doe
|
I just want the John I know
|
Once you put the drinks on hold
|
Maybe you could come back home
|
John Doe ooh oh oh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
Errybody's addicted to something
|
Errybody gotta grip onto something
|
Even if it's just the feel too
|
responsible to feel maybe once
|
maybe twice
|
Maybe hundreds of times
|
hundreds of times
|
Without it it's just harder to
|
function at times
|
You race to the bottom of every
|
single bottle
|
As if there was someone or
|
something to find
|
You're struggling in your mind
|
And you tell yourself lie
|
after lie
|
'Til you get to the point where
|
it's no longer private
|
That people that you work with
|
noticed the signs
|
When you walk in the room
|
It gets noticeably quiet
|
So you break up the silence
|
you say you've been at the gym
|
But the way look
|
can't blame on the diet
|
So what you hiding
|
John Doe
|
I just want the John I know
|
Once you put the drinks on hold
|
Maybe you could come back home
|
John Doe ooh oh oh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
Yeah I've probably had
|
too many things
|
Smashed too many freaks
|
Had too much to drop me
|
Had too much to drink
|
Left the club ended up in custody
|
Random drug test
|
passed it luckily
|
My girl broke up wit' me cause
|
she walked in suddenly
|
With a woman up under me
|
I told her Wait
|
It ain't what it look like
|
I must've slip and fell
|
clumsy me
|
Well at least I admit it cause
|
the worst you could do
|
Is to do it and not be man
|
enough to say that you did it
|
That's just how you prevent it
|
well I ain't no different
|
I love all the money the fame
|
And the parties with beautiful
|
women
|
I spend so much time as an
|
underground artist
|
Cause I was afraid to succumb to
|
the business
|
And what I'd become
|
But that what you'd judge I become
|
The path with the greatest
|
resistance
|
That's how the tables can turn
|
when they pivot
|
And change you perspective and
|
flip your entire position
|
My whole life I've been dying to
|
wish and to live and experience
|
Everything possible
|
When I told 'em my dreams
|
they just said they ain't logical
|
Now I can see it it's optical
|
optical
|
ooh oh oh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh
|
John Doe
|
I just want the John I know
|
Once you put the drinks on hold
|
Maybe you could come back home
|
John Doe
