Lying Down |
I was born and I was bred |
I was reared and I was fed |
Moved into the neighbourhood |
Where I was bad and I was good |
I fixed things for people there |
I took them out I don’t know where |
I coloured in their lives to give them outlines |
I walked before I’ll walk again |
I’ll walk along a line of men |
And walk into the lion’s den |
I think you know but you won’t say |
Just what it is makes life this way |
But I’m not going to take this lying down |
Reach for the stars retch for the earth |
We took the earth and made it worse |
And there was never any doubt |
We ate it up we spat it out |
And still we love to say we did it our way |
On this voyage of discovery |
I’m blinded by the things I see |
I’ve seen before I’ll see again |
I’ll look along a line of men |
And fall into the lion’s den |
Now you can pray your head is bared |
And I’m not saying I’m not scared |
But I’m not going to take this lying down |
I think you know but you won’t say |
Just what it is makes life this way |
But I’m not going to take this lying down |
