BLUE RODEO: TILL I AM MYSELF AGAIN


I want to know where my confidence went

one day it all disappeared.

And I'm lying in a hotel room miles away

voices next door in my ear.

Daytime's a drag nighttime's worse,

hope that I can get home soon.

But the half-finished bottles of inspiration

lie like ghosts in my room

I wanna go, I know I can't stay,

but I don't want to run feeling this way

till I am myself again, till I am myself again


There's a seat on the corner I keep every night

wait till the evening begins.

I feel like a stranger from another world

but at least I'm living again.

There are nights full of anger words that are thrown

tempers that are shattered and thin

and the moments of magic are just too short

they're over before they begin


I know it's time one big step

I can't go I'm not ready yet

till I am myself again, till I am myself again


I had a dream that my house was on fire

people laughed while it burned.

I tried to run but my legs were numb

I had to wait till the feeling returned

I don't need a doctor to figure it out

I know what's passing me by

when I look in the mirror sometimes I see

traces of some other guy

I wanna go, I know I can't stay,

but I don't want to run feeling this way

till I am myself again, till I am myself again

till I am myself again
