Out on my own,
|
I’m taking photographs,
|
No-one will see,
|
And I won’t remember them
|
Many years from now,
|
They’ll confuse historians,
|
Cos they’ve got no names,
|
Cos they’ve got no provenance
|
|
Well you can paint out the sky
|
You can turn night into day
|
You can sleep as long as you like
|
But you can’t make the world go away
|
No you can’t make the world go away
|
|
You look diseased
|
And you’re barely 21
|
Ten years from now
|
You’ll be dead to everything
|
I can see it all
|
Like I’ve seen it all before
|
One day you’ll wake up
|
And you won’t know who you are
|
|
And everything that you do
|
Every word that you say
|
You try as hard as you can
|
But you can’t make the world go away
|
No you can’t make the world go away
|
|
This won’t take long
|
I can tell you’re getting bored
|
Just a couple of ticks
|
We’ll be through with this chore
|
