Purpose

(From Play)

I know you adore me
I know that I'm your type
And I know you ignore me
Even when you know I'm right

I was a messiah,
But now I'm just a man
Living real tired
Living when I can

What am I to do when my back's against the wall?
I feel like giving up- I know one day I'm gonna fall
But when I look at you, all my fears just melt away
You keep me hanging on and help me face another day

I am on a mission
To break the world I know
I'll take your attention
Let the superstition go

When I'm in your eyes
Don't try to be too cold to touch
I will be as I am
You know that nothing is ever too much

What am I to do when my back's against the wall?
I feel like giving up- I know one day I'm gonna fall
But when I look at you, all my fears just melt away
You keep me hanging on and help me face another day

I know you're impressive
I just might like your style
You might be the best
If I was still a child

Live around the edges
Come and fly with me
Or play among the dreamers
Who don't know what they see

What am I to do when my back's against the wall?
I feel like giving up- I know one day I'm gonna fall
But when I look at you, all my fears just melt away
You keep me hanging on and help me face another day

I know you adore me
