» Diary of a Nobody




Out on a lonesome highway


A weary drifter plays a tune


A serenade to the dying day


As it gives way to the moon


Mornings on the other side


And it's coming far to soon


 


He kicks out at the darkness


Of his empty silhouette


Just a shadow of a man


Like the dad he never met


Weaving down the road of life


Fuelled by whiskey and regret


 


He's a missing person falling down


With no one around to hear the sound


The silent story of the unknown


'Cause in the diary of a nobody'


Some men are fated to suffer alone


'Yea in the diary of a nobody'


Some men are fated to suffer alone


 


Now all he wants is his freedom


Instead of being strung along


Like some unloved misfit puppet


Who could never fix what was wrong


As his tears became idle drops


Forever painting his sad song


 


So he looks for comfort where he can find it
