Singer In The Band - David McWilliams

sunday afternoon

sittin' in my room

nothin’s really changed

it just looks the same

yet it’s over

passed along my way

said she couldn’t stay

she stood all alone

so l look her home

she was my lover

she is a singer in the band

and when she sings I understand

she lives inside her songs

the only place to hide

but she can’t hide

and so she sings

that’s how she cries

see her name in lights

candle burning bright

people slop and stare

they don’t really care

they don’t know her

never thought to ask

what lies behind the mask

she’s alone up there

they don’t really care

they don’t know her

she is a singer in the band

and when she sings I understand

she lives inside her songs

the only place to hide
