Charlie Fay Songtext
von Gustav & The Seasick Sailors

Charlie Fay
woke up early every morning
The degrees we're too low
his train went too slow

A country boy
moved away to find his space
Big scary lights
The smiles seemed to bright

Don't let anyone know that you're better
Don't let anyone see when you prove them wrong
You should place yourself in the middle
and maybe you'll be accepted as you are


He found a job
at some coffeshop downtown
The days became longer
He thought he was stronger

Then he found a heart
but she was as sharp as a knife
She cut him in two
he should have followed her rule

Don't let anyone know that you're better…

Charlie Fay
woke up early until this day
'Let's stay in bed' she said
'I want to stay undressed'
