Jason Falkner - Upside Down Frown lyrics

There is only a test of the Emergency Broadcasting System on my muted tv Everyone I've ever met and some I haven't met just yet are tossing and turning me in my motel bed The neon outside my window's buzzing and blinking, it mocks me as it keeps me from my dreams It's 4 a.m. you guess it I'm touring again you're right I'm screwed 'cause I can't get my sleep Will you tell me what I need Can you break the monotony? Life goes on at such a speed There are no guarantees for me I pick at my food some more, pretend it tasted good before - and that's a bad idea Well I'd make a big mess, tear up the place and shake my chest, but then I'd be just another casualty Go and take a cold shower that ends up lasting an hour, quick mirror check - is that face really me? Should you feel responsible For a stranger's happiness? Did I really connect with you Is this another test for me? So Mr. Manager said gotta get my a** out of bed to clean the room, he's gonna change his tune I just gotta move, get off the floor, get out the door and get myself with those pretty young things Breathe in, breath out, give my soul something to think about you know all I need is someone to feed Be a stranger on your town, turning frowns upside-down, follow me, oh, if you like what you see Will you tell me what I need Can you break the monotony? Life goes on at such a speed There are no guarantees for me Should you feel responsible For a stranger's happiness? Did I really connect with you Or is this another test for me? Will you tell me what I need Can you break the monotony? Life goes on, or so it seems There are no guarantees
