I’m not a solitary man

[Verse 1] Felt the cold No hand to hold Just the quiet in the bone Not the kind they’ve known [Verse 2] He keeps walking though the blood runs to the ground Nothing left to chase He won’t look around [Chorus] I just want to be my own man Don’t belong in their big parade But time still takes its pace I’m not a solitary man [Verse 3] Here on my chest Scars from long ago All my salad days confessed Still you don’t know [Verse 4] I was just a child I loved too fast Burned through every reckless mile Can’t make that love last now [Chorus] I just want to be my own man Don’t belong in their big parade But time still takes its pace I’m not a solitary man [Instrumental] [Verse 5] No one’s calling Most of you feel alone Still I’ve got good friends around me I don’t need a throne [Verse 6] I will reach my dreams somehow So I’ll stay strong Nothing’s easy here and now But I still belong [Chorus] I just want to be my own man Don’t belong in their big parade But time still takes its pace I’m not a solitary man [Outro] I’m not a solitary man Don’t belong in their big parade I’m not a solitary man I’m not a solitary man I’m not a solitary man I’m not a solitary man
