Cruel Logic - Tomb of the Unknown Rocker

You see a show and you get the thrill
And you want to be a rock and roll star
Well get in line, you’re not alone
And it’s hard to get very far
You learn to play, and you get a band
And you feel that you’re on your way
It’s the start of a lifelong chase
For the dreams
Of the Unknown Rocker
You see the lights as you hit the stage
And you hear the roar of the crowd
But then you wake up from your fever dream
You’re in a bar, and it’s 2 A.M.
With 5 people standing around
Last call
Another stone for the Tomb
Of the Unknown Rocker
You drive all night and sleep all day
Just to make it to the stage that night
Life in a van, not what you thought
And you wonder if your choice was right
“The scouts are here, “ the agent says,
“This is going to be your lucky break”
Just another lie to feed the dreams
Of the Unknown Rocker
You see the lights as you hit the stage
And you hear the roar of the crowd
But then you wake up from your fever dream
You’re in a bar, and it’s 2 A.M.
With 5 people standing around
Last call
Another stone for the Tomb
Of the Unknown Rocker
You sound pretty good
Been practicing I see
OK
Let’s see what you got
You tried so hard for all these years
And you always knew to stand your ground
You can’t do it for the wealth and fame
There’s just not enough to go around
But here’s a parting thought for you
And I’ll share it with you here today:
The band of gold is the kiss of death
For the dreams
Of the Unknown Rocker
You see the lights as you hit the stage
And you hear the roar of the crowd
But then you wake up from your fever dream
You’re in a bar, and it’s 2 A.M.
With 5 people standing around
Last call
another stone for the Tomb
Of the Unknown Rocker
It’s the Tomb
Of the Unknown Rocker
Rest
In
Peace
