Born To Perform Lyrics

I was born to perform in another life
I was born to die unknown
and the life that I choose
it won’t make it to the news
please, let me die alone

I dreamed I was like Freddie Mercury
but sure he was one of a kind
I can’t lie, I can’t fake
guess I’m more like Nick Drake
not the worst you can find

help me in time, I don’t need a home
just a place I can write
’cause it’s all in my head you know
just a place I can hide

should art be about my inner self? or should it please as many as it can?
I can’t speak for a crowd
still the words they come out
and that’s an art in itself

how many lives can a man uphold?
how many dreams can he chase?
or is it all about letting go
and just keeping your face?

I was born to be alive
and to die on a stage
I don’t care about the gold
let me sing till I’m old
and let me learn about life
