Darling

These city streets they eat away at you You wanna be somebody but they don't want you But you've been told you've been sold and it's so old There's nothing they can say that won't make you feel controlled Now I use my words I grew a spine But these things they take time I met someone whom I don't belong But you never thought that was very wrong Don't tell me who I ought to be Quite frankly that's up to nobody Now I use my words I grew a spine But these things they take time Do you still live in that thing you call the past Does it get at you oh wait forget I asked I've grown so tired I could just go to sleep But then would I be around for your defeat Now I use my words I grew a spine But these things they take time I met someone whom I don't belong But you never thought that was very wrong Don't tell me who I ought to be Quite frankly that's up to nobody Now I use my words I grew a spine But these things they take time Straighten yourself up darling Straighten yourself up darling
