Henry Rollins
"Icon"

All eyes turned up to the heroCharismatic icon animal manLyrical visionary caught in the spotlightThe more you make, the more you get it right, right?
Nothing can stop youNo one can bring you downDon't give a thought to tomorrowYou're the man right now
It doesn't matter what you sayBecause they always find some meaning in it anywayMake them feel like they're part of some big eventThey'll be too busy cheering to wonder where your talent went
They really need youThey've got to have youYou're the only one who understands

Slender messiah, God with a songTurned strung out wreck who stuck around too longTragic hero coming down hardThe joke's on you, you got played like a deck of cards
Paying the price of fameUnder the weight of the flames
Feel the backlashWatch the tables turnNow you need themFeel the fire burn
All eyes turned up to the heroStrung out self abusive circus freakOne thing that you might not knowThere'll be another messiah right here next week
