lyrics

Verse 1
You look so different when
the morning sun kicks in.
Ashamed of facing truth
and I was just a name.
From the lost and found
where you'll always find me
only when you need me
a map to where i'll be
A map to where I'll be

Chorus
Life on the back beat
I walking down your street
sweat on my back
and my hearts on your sheet
Life on the back beat
I'm walking down your street
my head's in the gutter
my bonds? In the backset
OOOOOHHHHH WOOOOO

Verse 2
I'm quick to leave a trace.
Just so we are clear
I'm the one he'll call
Cuz I'm the one he heard
through all the noise and clamour
a map with all your needs?
a map without a key
a map without a key
