O Solo Mio

A screaming fool is painting me In clashing shades of luxury and pain And my brain is perfectly infallible That's why I want to end it all When we disagree O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio Everybody needs a little dignity Everybody gets a little tragedy Everybody needs a little mystery Everybody's laughing at a fool like me I walk alone the city streets I barely want to lift my feet And I hate my eyes For seeing what I cannot have And feeling what I cannot stand I flee human beings Everybody needs a little dignity Everybody gets a little tragedy Everybody needs a little mystery Everybody's laughing at a fool like me O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio Liberty has brought me death The pavement violates my breath With whores keeping score In dignity approaches me Dressed up as sensitivity Being nice is the vice Everybody needs a little dignity Everybody gets a little tragedy Everybody needs a little mystery Everybody's laughing at a fool like me O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio Let the man go now O solo mio Live like a fisherman O solo mio Listen to your voices O solo mio Drop me in the water now Drop me in the water now Drop me in the water now Shake 'em up baby Run from the children Run from the children I'll be sinking or swimming I'll be sinking or swimming I'll be sinking or swimming swimming swimming swimming O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio O solo mio
