"Lonely Man"

(From the Demo Sessions)

I got some game and I got some style
You best beware I'm a real wild child
My secret's safe, can't read my mind
To get to me you've got to get in line

I am a lonely man
I am a lonely man
I lost everything on the number ten
You gotta pay if you wanna play
I tossed my dice on the green felt skin
You gotta pay if you wanna play
It all comes down so I break it down
It all comes down so I break it down
It all comes down so I break it down
It all breaks down

Break it
Break it

Take some time you can see inside
The little man that I try to hide
You'll never know me 'cause I've always lied
You'll never know all the tears I've cried

[Spoken:]
Don't be dabbling in everything that you see
Trying everything that is wrong without being stupid
Or you'll be history
You got money causing injury
You felt like you ain't advancing
Well I keep on calling it
Hollering it
Don't you know
That I paid the ransom
Up on the cross
So no more living like you have to be sad and lost
Paid it dross
When I died on Calvary
The devil lost them, lost them
Twirling up these demons like my name is Drossen
So that you could have
Life

I am a lonely man
Uh, come on
I am a lonely man
Yeah, come on, bring it in
I lost everything on the number ten
You gotta pay if you wanna play
I tossed my dice on the green felt skin
You gotta pay if you wanna play
Uh, what, come on - spoken
It all breaks down

[Spoken:]
Check me out, player
You tried everything this world has to offer
But without pricing
You ain't got nothing, dog
You can put your money on that

I am a lonely man
I am a lonely man
I want something to believe in
I want to see what I cannot see
I want something to believe in
I want to see what I cannot see

I am a lonely man
I can't see what I cannot see
Come on
I am a lonely man
Yeah
I want to see what I cannot see
