Here’s something strange
Under a blue sky waiting
For things to change
And it’s intoxicating
Tortured artist man
Leaps the day in a single bound
Well you know
I am out of fight
With my eyes shut tight
Wish I could forget now

I will not be your best-kept secret
Your long-suffering one
I will not be your journeyman
Your also-ran
I will not be that
Let me forget now

Another stroke
Onto a red sky painting
My shirt is soaked
My weary subject fainting
Tortured artist man
Left to conquer his expectations
Well you know
Weather on my side
Got my eyes open wide
And I will forget now

I will not be your best-kept secret
Your long-suffering one
I will not be your journeyman
Your also-ran
I will not be that

I will forget now
I will forget
Throw off the monkey
Sustain no regret

I will not be your best-kept secret
Your long-suffering one
I will not be your journeyman
Your also-ran
I will not be that
