MAN OF THE PEOPLE
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Trust, you know how to take it
Love, you know how to fake it
And I will be there beside you
The camera eye, the drug is just to be near you
Hey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the plan
I lie here like a dog
And think of all I would undo
Anyone would go
But I got nowhere to go to
And what is left of us?
Now there’s only the cinders
Ambition froze me out
Like a demonic winter
Hey, well I can take rejection
Hey, what does it take to get your attention?
Cos you’re a man of the people
A man of the people
And I’m just part of the plan
Hush now, the winter gets you
Hush now, the winter gets you down
