The Nobody Lyrics by My Good Man William

The Far Country

2018

Verse 1
I danced with the butterflies, but I’m a nobody
I tipple this poison of all varieties
And my cup is full, so I will drink it down
And lay my head with those in no mans land
Chorus
Cause life is an hourglass, glued to the table
Hope is an anchor, not a fable
No-one told me as a child
Life wouldn’t turn out the way I thought it should
Verse 2
Got up today, because I didn’t want to be alone as I fade away
I hear the sirens call
I used to think I’d live forever, at least a long long time
Turns out it wasn’t to be
Chorus
Life is an hourglass, glued to the table
Hope is an anchor, not a fable
No-one told me as a child
Life wouldn’t turn out the way I thought it should
Verse 3
Cause there are those who always fall behind or fall apart
You won’t hear me crying
Cause i’ll just do my drinking here in the dark
Im a nobody
Chorus
Life is an hourglass, glued to the table
Hope is an anchor, not a fable
No-one told me as a child
Life wouldn’t turn out the way I thought it should
Outro
Here in the real world
Here in the real world
