Nexus Icon Lyrics

Nexus Icon lyrics

A world awaits an idol to make a connection

A mother complex begs stellar direction

He’s taking the chair

He’s living the life

He’s fucking pretty girls every night

But he ain’t fucking the wife…



And he’s doing the things we’ll never do

And he’s genuine judging by the size of his crew

With a face the eye can easily digest

He’s down with the big boys, and up there with the big best



A Lennon, a Presley, Muhammed Ali 

They give us their life, literally

It’s got to be all or nothing, death or glory 

‘cos the history books could always use a new story



Nexus icon, nexus icon the negative cycle is waiting for the next one

Nexus icon, nexus icon this is not open to negotiation



He’s living fast, he’s dying slow

And nobody knows that the audience approval is the only approval

He’s known to be real

“at least as real as a rock ‘n’ roll show�



Then alone again is the man

But he can’t stand being alone, fighting the fear that is the fade of
the glow

And the length of the time we expect him to give

‘Cuz someone’s got to live like we all want to live 

And we all want to see but we don’t want to be

“’Cuz if someone’s gonna die it ain’t gonna be
me�



Nexus icon, nexus icon the negative cycle is waiting for the next one

Nexus icon, nexus icon this is not open to negotiation



And at times like these when he’s fighting the hate

That he feels for the loneliness

Feels for the home that he makes and takes straight to a different place

Where a new set of faces appear to relate

But he can’t help equate the relationship to the time that he swore his
love to a whore

Another name on the door

Another 1, 2, 3, 4 but the same old crown standing there on the floor



Nexus icon, nexus icon the negative cycle is waiting for the next one

Nexus icon, nexus icon this is not open to negotiation

Nexus icon, nexus icon the negative cycle is waiting for a live one

Nexus icon, nexus icon and when you’re done pass it over to the next
one



“And will the last one out please leave the light on�
