Cameo Songtext
von Mick Flannery

You ever just lose it?
You ever feel that nothing we do ain′t worth a damn?
All of these dreamers, all of these believers
None of it count for anything
The big prank man plays on man

Lately the world makes me unhappy
Kids staring in the TV screens
Nobody wants to admit they're lonely
Maybe don′t know what lonely means

That's what it is though, all of us alone
All of us watching our little shows
I'm star of my movie, everything I see
Enter the script and on it goes
Here′s your little cameo


I go out walking late at evening
I try to focus on my breath
Most of the time though I end up running
Like I′m being chased inside my head

And every day the very same
The nothing rages at the gates
I see the sun fill up the sky
And lay the white rock down to waste
And then the bone beneath the hand
And then the skull behind the face
This is not who I am
This is what I became

I count my blessings, a house and all our things
The girl of my dreams that's now my wife
But if I′m so lucky, if I'm so happy
Why do I lie awake at night?
Why am I angry all the time?

I look in the eyes of people strolling
In the supermarket aisles
Today I pass two young girls laughing
I imagine their blood running on the tiles
