lyrics

I have a small part to play
in this whole charade
just a moment in the sun
before I go back to the shade
so when they call my name
when they pull me out on stage
I will face the music
I won't look afraid

Well the harp marks the time
and reads between the lines
just counting up the moments
that I have to act alive
I was raised in a cave
where the brass is tucked away
and the door must not be opened
lest that wrathful chord be played

so help me, cause I don't know how
my soul will ever touch the clouds
I'm a stranger and I'm new to town
and when I leave I don't expect to take a bow

Count for me,
1, 2, 3,
show me where I need to be
count for me
I'm getting old,
I'll be blind soon, I can barely see
count for me
let me see your face
count for me
let me stand in your place
count for me
let me go on my way
cause the riots
they started early today

and help me, cause I don't know how
my soul will ever touch the clouds
I'm a stranger and I'm new to town
and when I leave I don't expect to take a bow
