And I get older, I can't hold the weight up I've got weak shoulders I need to buck up and be stoic like Greek soldiers It seems like I'm always starting over I guess that's just the life I've chosen Still opposing forces light up and Ck block along their chosen courses Feeling force and lay blame and take down the torches I've been in bliss little lately They couldn't make me settle down Mister, let me list the ways this is gonna get me off the ground You can't climb a mountain and miss out on the vista S, I've been climbing cliffs and poking through the mists Same sky, different twist, gotta make sure I exist Pinch myself on the arm just before I slit the wrist And I did? a mug full of high caffeination and then fleed the hive Cause I can't take this generation gap Road talkin s with no tact and act out loud Instinct says think outside the crowd Alone, this song's for those who like to be alone Sleep alone, leave it alone, in at home just bein' on your own Alone, this song's for those who hate to be alone Sleep alone, be left alone, Too scared to find something to call your own Sometimes when I'm alone I feel like I'm really not In my own hideaway, I feel like I'm being watched When I'm alone I argue with myself and ayze my life Just to clean the dust off this shelf All alone, carryin my disappointments I've seemed to carry out Every mistake that would leave my a broken-hearted We'd be? but I don't want to be alone no more Don't wanna be lonely no more And I can't complain, maintain the pain A little wisdom that comes when nothing can be changed Things get done better when I let the way go Down to sounds of folks screamin "Hey, yo!" At night, illuminated in shades of day-glo This kingdom won't grow unless I say so It's a cold cold world and I ain't even got a coat But I ain't scared to share some heat But I don't wanna rock the boat This is my olden me, my code of honour?? So my prophecy betold upon my soul falls right in front of me Huntin me down, lookin for the right support Are they gonna come for me now? Now? Why do I feel like everytime I achieve, they shutting me down? Sometimes I get boxed in the field of life Whenever I left that door open, that's when the trouble walked in And I'm lost somewhere in between the both of this But I gotta keep on, no matter how hard it gets Keep on taking steady steps and see?? Be second guessed every inch of this f quest And it ain't no easy thing to appreciate the joy that music brings I feel like a vessel the way the angels sing to me And time's an enemy, I'm suddenly thinkin about these inanimate objects And how they're gonna outlast me and it makes my heart beat heavily And that's a journey that I must do on my own When lights start to fade, I must go all alone I must admit that I'm puzzled. You hipsters claim to be such relaxed, Free spirits. Yet your rules for social behaviour are Even more set tight and rigid than those in square society. Yeah well, Dave. It's simple, I'll spell it out for you. You know, A lot of the simple everyday behaviour is illegal so there's always a Lot of heat on the scene. And, you know, You've gotta protect yourself. Now if you break the rules, You get put down in the street. But you break the square rules and they throw you in the slammer, And that's a big difference. Anyway, there's only two basic rules. You protect yourself from the possibility of Police intervention, and you protect your state of mind.
