The Imposter

from A Brief Smile by Peter Turk

/

lyrics

All the time the talk is small
I slide my way down the hall
It’s a miracle I’m even here at all
I’m stepping closer to my fall

So let’s play out the part
You be the speaker and I will listen
Pretend I can relate
A nod and a smile
A point I’m missing

All I’m hoping for
Is we find something here to foster
Or you’ll find out who I am
The imposter.

My attention tends to sway
Toward the bad things they say
It’s irrelevant, I’m leaving anyway
I’m getting closer to that day

Next time I will try
To keep the faith in what I’ve been given
And hold my head up high
To nod and smile with full precision

And I will give my all
In search of something here to foster
Forgetting who I am
The Imposter.
