Man that never speaks Lyrics

As I walk through my own town, there's people walking all around

But they don't really notice me, not really

People try to put me down, cause I never make a sound

But you can hear me faintly, just listen

Laugh at me like I'm a clown, cause I never wear a crown

Oh, I wish my voice was free, as can be

So put me down with the freaks, I'm the man that never speaks

You turn the other cheek, cause you think I'm weak

But I'm the man that never speaks

Sometimes people just ignore, the fact that I'm just a bore

But they don't really know who I am, anymore

If I'm a boy at fifty-four, I'll be a boy forevermore

I might as well be a dead man, seems I am

Am I real? I'm just not sure. I'm feeling rotten to the core

But I've gotta do what I can, to be a real man

So put me down with the freaks, I'm the man that never speaks

You turn the other cheek, cause you think I'm weak

But I'm the man that never speaks
