Overlooked Lyrics - Carolines Spine

I move around in a place 

Where people will do 

Whatever it takes to make a dream come true 

Did your will not happen any other way? 

So you get another job on the floor for free 

You'll be the first to show and the last to leave 

You gotta make it happen for another day 

(chorus) 

The world may never know my name 

It's OK, it's all part of the game 

Maybe I'll end up in a history book 

But I leave my mark in the blood and sweat 

And I live my life with no regret 

So I hope in heaven I won't be overlooked 

I call my life collect 

And I swallow advice 

I lie about living on raman and rice 

And I brag from deep behind the scenes 

Yea, the fan is the fun 

The freak is the fight 

The chill of the stage is the heat of the lights 

And knowing I'm not the end 

I'm just a means 

(repeat chorus) 

I still hear the scream as the lights go down 

And it puts a smile on my little frown 

I still taste what it is to be received 

Yeah, I miss a premier or a part of your press 

My invitation must have got the wrong address 

So here I sit a proud among the deceived 

The world may never know my name 

It's OK, it's all part of the game 

Maybe I'll end up in a somebody's book 

But I leave my mark in the blood and sweat 

And I gave them something they will never forget 

So I hope in heaven I won't be overlooked
