I understand your lack of feeling I comprehend your signals so it’s alright Throw up your hands, they’re in for a killing Raise your weapons and I’ll hold up the time Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Turn down the volume, can you hear the screaming? Find a place that you don’t have to hide Hold a pose that’s direction is freeing Hold it in and never, never, never Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line Just cut along, cut along the line

Keep me alive but then push me aside There’s no woman around here but you Keep me afloat cause there’s nothing I know Can affect any woman like you Cure my inside just to curse and divide There’s no woman around here like you Torture and stain this deleted mainframe What more may be there for you? Keep me alive but then push me aside There’s no woman around here but you Keep me afloat cause there’s nothing I know Can affect any woman like you Cure my inside just to curse and divide There’s no woman around here like you Torture and stain this deleted mainframe What more may be there for you?

Lucy could fall in love But doesn’t think she’s earned it And “No one deserves it” And the thought makes her nervous Plus, she’s too old for it anyway Sally would fall in love But has so many reasons Excuses and regions, she must go to first And reach her potential And show all the people Who don’t believe in what she says Julie can’t fall in love She knows all the torment She’d just rather forget Those bastards who beat her And screwed up her seasons Until she couldn’t tell night from day Jodie will fall in love for the first time For the first time For the first time For the first time

Maureen wet her pants more than four times a day But it was okay Allen was admitted to the psychiatric ward one day “Nothing’s right!” Maureen cried “Nothing is right, ground your flights!” “Nothing is right!” Maureen cried “Nothing is right, ground your flights!” George won’t sing again George won’t sing again George won’t sing again

So, we’ve come out from another self-made breakdown Can you feel yourself weaker now? Don’t hold to it or hold it down We spent the weekend listening to Nick Drake And wonder why we’re not feeling great Just takes some pills, I’ll take mine We’ll take some time further down We’ll take the back lanes Bypass the motorways Realise our boundaries And quit anything that can bring us down So, we’ve come out from another self-made breakdown Can you feel yourself stronger now? Don’t hold to it or hold it down We took the weekend to meditate And wonder why feel so misplaced You learn to kill by killing time Snort some lines coming down We’ll take the back lanes Bypass the motorways Realise our boundaries And quit anything that can bring us down We’ll false claim a new age Slow motion the fast pace Count on your mercy And quit anything that can bring us down We’ll take the back lanes Bypass the motorways Realise our boundaries And quit anything that can bring us down We’ll false claim a new age Slow motion the fast pace Count on your mercy And quit anything that can bring us down
