Текст песни I'm Always On Stage - Sam Fender

Some time ago, I wandered down a path
That beckoned with a whisper
It crept up and latched upon my back
Now it's with me on the road

Its Machiavellian movements are a test
To witness in the flesh
Makes me smile when I should be crying
And it never lets me rest

If you see me smiling
It's forceful, and violent
Oh, it's still there though in the silence
'Cause I'm always on stage

There's gack and drink and steroids on the counter
Do you think you're some kind of rock star?
I did all that when I was on the dole
But the money didn't stretch as far

But at least then I had my head up on my shoulders
And faced love without fear
But it took all that away, and put my failures on display
And, now, you're no longer here

If you see me smiling
It's forceful, and violent
You had my soul when it was vibrant
Before I lost it on a stage

If you see me smiling
It's forceful, and violent
You had my soul when it was vibrant
Before I lost it on a stage

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
