Lyrics
Banished
I don’t mean to mislead there’s little happy in my story,
No puppies, bluebirds and kittens every day,
I was weak, domineered by thoughts of adventure and glory,
Had a knockdown with my conscience all the way,
I nearly drowned, lost on an ocean of my insatiable ego,
Got some blues and complications ‘long the way,
Yeah, deep inside, I’m cold and broken,
I’m the number one freak at the sideshow,
It doesn’t mean I cannot love you,
See I’ve banished me away,
What can I say I never slayed the dragon,
Thought I had him on his knees once or twice then let him win,
Yeah, I moved around the world and wore so many, many different faces,
I’m not sure where the truth ends and the legend begins,
I never found, my central purpose,
I trampled on love ‘fore it could grow,
I created some injustice ‘long the way,
Yeah, deep inside, I’m cold and frozen,
I’m the number one freak at the sideshow,
It doesn’t mean I cannot love you,
See I’ve banished me away,
Banished me away…
