|
Looking for a way out |
|
Of the days of dissolution |
|
As the tension mounts |
|
The diamonds in the fire |
|
Touch it your gonna get burnt |
|
As they patronise |
|
Look in their eyes |
|
They secretly yearn to say |
|
Oh oh leave us alone |
|
I shouldn't have to tell you down the microphone |
|
The tide of your life |
|
You know it starts to change |
|
And when you try to do something different |
|
You are met with malign |
|
And it fills you with a feeling |
|
That then leads to self doubt |
|
As you sit drunk at the bar |
|
And from the corner of your mouth you say |
|
Oh oh leave us alone |
|
I shouldn't have to tell you down the microphone |
|
How can you dance when you're on your own? |
|
But when you're caught in the cradle of Monday's arms |
|
Your pissed up drunken madness |
|
Didn't warm to their charms |
|
And you sit a little stiff |
|
And you search for a line |
|
To try again but don't say when |
|
And until that time we say |
|
Oh oh leave us alone |
|
I shouldn't have to tell you down the microphone |
|
How can you dance when you're on your own? |
