Feeling Mortal
From the album Feeling Mortal
[Verse 1]
N.C.
Wide awake and feeling mCortal
At this moment in the drGeam
That old man there in the mG7irror
And my shaky self-estCeem
N.C.
Here today and gone tomCorrow
It's the way it's got to bFe
With an empty blue horCizonG  
For as far as I can sCee
[Chorus]
God Almighty here I Fam
Am I where I ought to bCe
I've begun to soon descGend
Like the sun into the sCea
And I thank my lucky stFars
From here to eternitCy
For the artist that you Gare
And the man you made of mCe
[Verse 2]
N.C.
Pretty speeches still unspCoken
Perfect circles in the sGand
Rules and promises I've brG7oken
That I still don't understCand
Soon or later I'll be leCaving
I'm a winner either wFay
For the laughter and the lCovingG  
That I'm living with todCay
[Chorus]
God Almighty here I Fam
Am I where I ought to bCe
I've begun to soon descGend
Like the sun into the sCea
And I thank my lucky stFars
From here to eternitCy
For the artist that you Gare
And the man you made of mCe
[Coda]
N.C.
Wide awake and feeling mCortal

Feeling Mortal

From the album Feeling Mortal

[Verse 1]

N.C.

Wide awake and feeling mortal

At this moment in the dream

That old man there in the mirror

And my shaky self-esteem

N.C.

Here today and gone tomorrow

It's the way it's got to be

C G

With an empty blue horizon

For as far as I can see

[Chorus]

God Almighty here I am

Am I where I ought to be

I've begun to soon descend

Like the sun into the sea

And I thank my lucky stars

From here to eternity

For the artist that you are

And the man you made of me

[Verse 2]

N.C.

Pretty speeches still unspoken

Perfect circles in the sand

Rules and promises I've broken

That I still don't understand

Soon or later I'll be leaving

I'm a winner either way

C G

For the laughter and the loving

That I'm living with today

[Chorus]

God Almighty here I am

Am I where I ought to be

I've begun to soon descend

Like the sun into the sea

And I thank my lucky stars

From here to eternity

For the artist that you are

And the man you made of me

[Coda]

N.C.

Wide awake and feeling mortal
