about
drunkenly mocking Elton John, Alex Rowney started playing the opening riff after practice in 2016 and was soon joined by Adam Pezen who improvised the first version of the song. The song was later recorded as a demo and never finished, although it was performed several times live in premature versions.
lyrics
putting on a show for no one
hoping I can crawl into someone new
and break on through
cuz I've been such a fool to doubt it
I couldn't even live without it
playing the fool
like I got something to prove
sometimes I look deep inside myself and
I understand the man that I am
but to tell you the truth
don't know what to do
but get close to you
it's the least I can do
how do we break the habit
I can't do this by myself
I can't do this alone
