I was a fireman, but I didn't go in
When the house was burning to the ground.
I was a young man, but I didn't feel it
When all of my best friends were out on the town.
I was a razor, but I didn't scrape her
When she held me too close to her wrist.
I was a bastard, a natural disaster
When I flooded her thoughts with my kiss.
I'm cautious when I'm conscious.
I'm fearless when I'm asleep,
But my dreams aren't what they used to be.
I was a pilot, but I couldn't fly yet
When my captain fastened up his belt.
I was a martyr, but I hadn't bothered
To sacrifice my life for a lie I didn't tell.
I'm cautious when I'm conscious.
I'm fearless when I'm asleep,
But my dreams aren't what they used to be.

Tone seems to be helpless. Or maybe, enjoying being so. But who knows, sounds good though.
i like a lot of passages in this one:)
