I used to be a big deal,
You heard me on the radio,
But no one knows my name anymore

Used to live without fear,
Cameras on the front door,
I guess nothing stays the same as before

Hold me down,
And tell me I'm doing fine,
Sacrifice your dreams for mine,
Cos I'm your man

Oh you only know me,
My sweet side,
I was the cut that left those scars behind

Each night,
We'd put on Jackson Browne and dance like fools in love,
In daylight my record spins,
And silence swings a pounding sucker punch

Oh hold me down,
You offered your plans and I,
Used them to start a fire,
Cos I'm your man

Oh you only know me,
One small side,
But I was the cut that left those scars behind

I never meant to lend you,
All my doubt,
Your voice is so quiet,
And mine so loud
