There Is No Such Thing As Me (Demo)

This is a VERY rough demo recording of my song, There Is No Such Thing As Me, done on a USB microphone. The voice track is too low, but I wouldn't mind getting feedback on things like lyrics, instruments to add later, and general impressions. There is a version with slightly better audio here: http://www.myspace.com/deadbirdcitizen

Lyrics are below:

If the whole world is a circus
Then every day is a party
You can scream at the top of your lungs
But you cannot hear anybody

If my eyes are open
They're certainly not always
We plan to meet at a crossroads
And end up on the causeways

Chorus:
I'm more confused every minute
They're vaguer by the hour
Tightrope walkers tiny dots
Between two ivory towers
Between two ivory towers

Something through the roar
But I can't make it out
We both love and hate them
Don't know what they're about

Bobbleheads and inflatables
Waving wild, floppy arms
Crank it up to hear the message
But you cannot change the song

Chorus

If the way how it works is just a joke
Then why aren't we laughing
And if the problems are always the same
Why do they stay baffling

If history repeats itself
Then why can't we learn a pattern
We should be outside the cave but we're
Still watching shadows in the cavern

Chorus

Only talking through machines
Robots don't know why we cuddle
They do it 'cause it's in their programming
But through 1's and 0's it comes out muddled

Where am I and what am I doing
Every minute of every day
90 followers but it's for my benefit
Eyes on me and I'll be ok

Chorus

MePod, Myface, MP3
One-touch upload each detail,
Books are hard, why bother reading
Fitzgerald beat out by email

If I am an amalgamation
Of stories and people from TV
I'm absolutely nobody
There is no such thing as Me

I like your stuff. I have been a talent scoout for over 30-yrs. Surprise! Even though you love music you film is more amazing. You could go into a music industry program 4-year and go for the video part. You will be mixing. You kid rock climbing showed major talent . Was that you? PS. Pro LSD.& Discovery
