Everybody Else

This singular flame, my shifting frame
Keeping just above the flood
I’m an individual with residual trace
Of alcohol in my blood
Never gonna read about my future plans
Illegible palms on my dirty hands
Swallow the week, spit up the weekend
And hand it in a bag to my Sunday friend

Sex and sex and sex is here
We all want it, we’re always thinking on it
When empty dreams are ploughed up it seems
We all rely heavily upon it
Laughter and smiles on mile-stretched faces
Cracked lines and lost minds in dangerous places
When pretty paper can appear to hide the fear
I really don’t know what I’m doing here

Just like everybody else
Everybody else
Just like everybody else
Just like everybody else

Jesus came and Jesus claimed
To be the one and only way in
But you tell me that’s the easiest street for the people hung up on sin
So be a good citizen, work too hard
2-1 favourite on your nearest god
Just pray the same way that you did yesterday
So the girl in head office can file you away

Just like everybody else
Everybody else
Just like everybody else
Just like everybody else

Just like everybody else
Everybody else
Just like everybody else
Just like everybody else
