Taxi Driver Lyrics by Headcase

Lunatic Fringe: A Self Portrait

2015

Sleepless nights cause him much distress
In his eyes, you see a lack of self-respect
The feel-good jazz has poisoned his mind
And the lowlife blues treats him so unkind

He's falling in and out of touch
It's slipping from his clutch
He is a stranger in a strange land
There's nothing you can do for him
You'll never get through to him
He is God's lonely man

(instrumental break)

On the outside looking in, the scenery rolls by
People pass him but won't look him in the eye
The walls were built to the greatest extremes
There's no escape for the man who lives in dreams

All alone in a crowd
Drowning in uncertainty and doubt
He never really knew the score
All that's left is an empty shell
He no longer knows himself
And he will not take it anymore

(instrumental break)

One man's heart can only take so much
Before he loses all control and self destructs
And even though he lives a life of infamy
He'd rather die than accept your sympathy

(instrumental break)
