The Man on Stage Songtext
von Andy Shauf

I am the man on stage slurring your favorite songs. Making up a few of the words as I go along. Taking the edge off of me
Is a necessity when I′m singing these words that I no longer mean.
I am not a poet, I'm a broken heart
And though you didn′t dispute it, I don't really play the part.
I am not dishonest, I'm a lost detail
Leaving out the good words to hide my trail. I am not singing this to comfort you
Though my words aren′t daggers, I′m just telling the truth
That I am not a poet, I'm a broken heart
And though you didn′t dispute it, I don't really play the part.
I am not a poet, I′m a broken heart.
