He rents a room Cast in gloom Trying to find a voice That's not his own
Hes growing tired The medication won't work Hes still alive But he's alone
The things we do For fame and fortune The shadows we see Against the wall And the voices we hear That scream in our ear Is enough to make a grown man crawl
He locks himself In the bedroom He hasn't seen the Sunshine for days
And hes trying to find Some peace of mind Working on the role He wants to play
The things we do For fame and fortune The shadows we see Against the wall And the voices we hear That scream in our ear Is enough to make a grown man crawl
He's got a laugh But hes not happy at all And he smiles From ear to ear
Yes they think hes mediocre The man they call the Joker But all he needs Is a kind voice to hear
The things we do For fame and fortune The shadows we see Against the wall And the voices we hear That scream in our ear Is enough to make a grown man crawl
I wrote this song for the beautiful life we lost so Early Heath Ledger. I wrote this song to honor his life and all of the things he had to go through.
