Back To Anonymous
These days, it doesn't matter
I can let myself go
No disguise, just go for a stroll
It's back to anonymous
But those years were one big blur
I'm not sure where I have been
I dream the pieces back now and then
Mm
Is it cliche? Does it sound so ungrateful
When it comes out that way?
If so, I only mean to say
Thank you for those crazy days
But it's back to anonymous
Strangers, creepy and comfortable
That they knew my name, it's not at all what
I thought that fame would be, it was just a small world
For a while
Is life better now? Well, that depends
On how I'm feeling about
It's not so much that I wanted out
I really didn't have a say
But it's a big world with un-famous people
Who deserve the grand applause
And they quietly carry on
I'd like to think that I could be that strong
Daydreaming on the bus, that's all
Now it's back to anonymous
The wife and I, feeding the birds
In love, in comfortable clothes
The neighbors, they don't wink like they know
Back when they'd say, "Savor this moment
It's your time, seize the day"
But I couldn't stay awake
And I didn't feel a thing
And she reminds me when I start to think
I might throw my hat back in the ring
It's time to be
I can let myself go
No disguise, just go for a stroll
It's back to anonymous
But those years were one big blur
I'm not sure where I have been
I dream the pieces back now and then
Mm
Is it cliche? Does it sound so ungrateful
When it comes out that way?
If so, I only mean to say
Thank you for those crazy days
But it's back to anonymous
Strangers, creepy and comfortable
That they knew my name, it's not at all what
I thought that fame would be, it was just a small world
For a while
Is life better now? Well, that depends
On how I'm feeling about
It's not so much that I wanted out
I really didn't have a say
But it's a big world with un-famous people
Who deserve the grand applause
And they quietly carry on
I'd like to think that I could be that strong
Daydreaming on the bus, that's all
Now it's back to anonymous
The wife and I, feeding the birds
In love, in comfortable clothes
The neighbors, they don't wink like they know
Back when they'd say, "Savor this moment

But I couldn't stay awake
And I didn't feel a thing
And she reminds me when I start to think
I might throw my hat back in the ring
It's time to be
