I'm recording demos of songs I've never released as a way of getting them out into the world.

LYRICS

Aging British Rock stars are always so polite
They give you tender notions on your radios at night

And if you were to meet one they’d patient and alright
with the questions that you want to ask about the feel of all the limelight
Maybe you don’t deserve to know
Just what it’s like to be the impresario 
Your own music never reached a single soul

It takes a certain talent
A certain glow
To bring the fans
To the arena show

Aging British Rock stars they’ve always got your back
Any emotion you can feel will have a matching track

Maybe you can ask what it’s like to write a song
That catches in the mind like it existed in the world all along
Maybe you don’t deserve to know
Just what it’s like to be the writer of note
Your own music never reached a single soul

It takes a certain talent
To raise the show
The lights shine down
On the stage below
The house goes dark
Before the encore
But the song they most wanted to hear
Has yet to reach their ears
And you kept them waiting all night
Lambent in the dark with their phone flashlights
Before they know
Your back, aglow
The first note hits
The fans explode
You start to sing
They join in echo
The song they most wanted to hear
Forever, to you, endeared
You kept them buzzing all night
They'll never forget this time of their life

You brought the fans
To the arena show
You brought the fans
To the arena show

Thank you
