Frightened - The Fall

Someone’s always on my tracks

In a dark room you see more than you think

I’m out of my place, got to get back

I sweated a lot, you could feel the violence

I’ve got shears pointed straight at my chest

And time moves slow when you count it

I’m better than them, and I think I’m the best

But I’ll appear at midnight when the films close

Cause I’m in a trance

And I sweat

I don’t want to dance

I want to go home

I couldn’t live in those peephole places

They might get to know my actions

I’d run away from toilets and faeces

I’d run away to a non-date on the street

Cause I’m in a trance

And I sweat

I don’t want to dance

I want to go home

I feel trapped by mutual affection

And I don’t know how to use freedom

I spend hours looking sideways

To the time when I was sixteen

Cause I’m in a trance

And I sweat

I don’t want to dance

I want to go home

I’m frightened

Amphetamine frightened

I go to the top of the street

I go to the bottom of the street

I look to the sky, my lips are dry…
