Justin Aswell - Taxi Driver lyrics

Sleepless nights cause him much distress In his eyes, you see a lack of self-respect The feel-good jazz has poisoned his mind And the lowlife blues treats him so unkind He's falling in and out of touch It's slipping from his clutch He is a stranger in a strange land There's nothing you can do for him You'll never get through to him He is God's lonely man (instrumental break) On the outside looking in, the scenery rolls by People pa** him but won't look him in the eye The walls were built to the greatest extremes There's no escape for the man who lives in dreams All alone in a crowd Drowning in uncertainty and doubt He never really knew the score All that's left is an empty shell He no longer knows himself And he will not take it anymore (instrumental break) One man's heart can only take so much Before he loses all control and self destructs And even though he lives a life of infamy He'd rather die than accept your sympathy (instrumental break)
