Passing Comet
Dirk Darmstaedter
You are a model of ego
we hide In dim lit bars
you live for the changes
we're stuck here with who we are
You are a passing comet
we are commuter trains
as you blaze thru the night sky
we ride home one town at a time
So don't move cause you might crash
and don't change anything
we stumble face down
can you lift us up again?
You give In to temptation
we're home for dinner at five
you are this year's scandal
but we are barely alive
So don't move cause you might crack
and don't change anything
we stumble face down
will you lift us up again?
You are a model of envy
and In spite of ourselves
we kid ourselves with possessions
and leave our lives a-waste on the shelf
