[Verse 1]
I know a man who doesn't have many friends
I know a place he lives where trouble never ends
I know it's hard for him to read 'tween the lines
And his days are getting so much shorter
[Verse 2]
He simply turns away and dons a bitter frown
His world is crumbling, his ship is weighted down
He doesn't care as long as he can wear the crown
I know this man all too well
[Chorus]
It's my poor friend, me
A portrayal of a great dichotomy (Great dichotomy)
Its my poor friend, me
And I'm running out of steam
[Verse 3]
I know there are people who are cynical and vain
They point their finger cause they can't accept the blame
They live their lives under a blanket of shame
And their progeny crawl from underneath it
[Bridge]
Lately I've come to see the solution
And it begins with me
But I'm so fallibly human
I'll pick the lock, but will not turn the key, yeah
I know a man who doesn't have many friends
I know a place he lives where trouble never ends
I know it's hard for him to read 'tween the lines
And his days are getting so much shorter

His world is crumbling, his ship is weighted down
He doesn't care as long as he can wear the crown
I know this man all too well

A portrayal of a great dichotomy (Great dichotomy)
Its my poor friend, me
And I'm running out of steam

And their progeny crawl from underneath it

But I'm so fallibly human
I'll pick the lock, but will not turn the key, yeah
