1984

I’m dead inside and dying more every day
Castrate my eyes and cut the lines in my face
The alcohol, the empty walls
Repress, regress, erase regrets
Return me now to where I was long ago
I need you, I need your love
I’m trying to rise above
I want you to bring me back to life
I feel their voices in the back of my head
I hear their eyes and turn when nobody’s there
The TV screens, the magazines
Depressed, diseased, deny your dreams
Dislocate, drained, adrift and losing control
I need you, I need your love
I’m trying to rise above
I want you to bring me back to life
The lack, the need, the fear, the greed
Redeem, amend, remember when
Return me now to where I was long ago
I need you, I need your love
I’m trying to rise above
I want you, I need your love
I want you to bring me back to life
