— Track 4 of _Clutching At Straws_ —
Is it wrong to talk to myself even when there’s nobody else
I’m just checking out that I’ve not gone under the
Water or thrown on the beach like a seal ready
For slaughter
Can’t you understand that the way things were planned
It never worked out so I just went crazy
I took to the drink like something say its
Maybe
I ain’t got no excuse to say, except it’s my way
I got nothing else to say, except it’s my way
It’s always my way I seem to be running away so often
I’ll try anything once and that’s the way we should be
But it’s always the same getting caught up again
In a habbit, a habbit I just can’t shake off
The way it always turned out
Can you understand it’s the way I chose to be
Everything seems so easy this way but I’m going under
Fast, I’m slipping away, am I so crazy
(Albert St., Aylesbury) [FISH and DEREK WILLIAM DICK]
