Adventures Close To Home - The Slits

Passion that shouts

And red with anger

I lost myself

Through alleys of mysteries

I went up and down

Like a demented train

Don’t take it personal

I choose my own fate

I follow love

I follow hate

Searching for something

That makes makes hearts move

I found myself

But my best possession

Walked into the shade

And threatened to drift away

Don’t take it personal

I choose my own fate

I follow love

I follow hate

Full of myself

I left you behind

As if I could

Possessed by Quixote’s dream

Went to fight dragons

In the land of concrete

Don’t take it personal

I choose my own fate

I follow love

I follow hate

Rolling in pain

Discovered what hurts

And tasted hell

Infatuated by madness

I danced in flames

And drunk in the depth of love
