I've got a fifth floor balcony
That I stand on every Sunday
Watching all the faces pass me by
I've got a Mexican Fender Strat
Got rust on it front to back
I don't know what I'll do with it
Got friends for life
In the city of love and lights
And here I'm just another face
I'm wasting all my money
On things that I don't need
But hey, that's who I am
I've got rent I can't pay myself
Got help from Mum and Dad
I could get used to this
I went completely offline
And as you all laughed and whined
I sat by my piano writing songs
I've got a second lease of life
A better life
I'm better off here than before
So don't take pity on me
I'll take pity on you
Hey, that's who I am
