Lunar Pirouette

I'm a silhouette
In the corner of your eye
I'm a cigarette
Burning in the dark of night
I'm the hero yet
I'm the one they vilify
Lunar pirouette
Working hard to turn the tides

I'm a silhouette
In the corner of your eye
I'm a cigarette
Burning in the dark of night
I'm the hero yet
I'm the one they vilify
Lunar pirouette
Working hard to turn the tides

I'm the man that everybody knows
Yet without a face
And I go where everybody goes
And don't leave a trace
And in fact i once have saved your life
But I'm sad to say
In the way that things have got to be
The moment was erased

I'm woven in the thread of life
Something like a pin
I was terrorized a single time
And lost my sense of it
Now I walk into the crossfire
To pick a single rose
You swore you saw me over there
Perhaps not i suppose

IIfeel these that circumstances
Are best
And a tad romantic
Don't you ever fear or panic
I can help you understand it

I'm a silhouette
In the corner of your eye
I'm a cigarette
Burning in the dark of night
I'm the hero yet
I'm the one they vilify
Lunar pirouette
Working hard to turn the tides

I'm a silhouette
In the corner of your eye
I'm a cigarette
Burning in the dark of night
I'm the hero yet
I'm the one they vilify
Lunar pirouette
Working hard to turn the tides
