Love Police

Sometimes i lie awake, wondering if i'll make it out of here,

But the wind blows round my heels, so i stay

I remember lying there, wishing i could be someone else

Trying to find somehow to get away.

If i asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,

'cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and i'm too tired to try.

Sometimes i sit here hearing voices in my head

I try to understand, to make some sense.

I wonder if i had to, would i lie to save myself?

A plea of guilty, but self defence.

If i asked him nicely d'you think he'd show me how?

I'm sure he's out there listening, but he's too tied up right now to try

Try, all of my sins

'cos i can't stop now,

Just don't leave me behind.

Sometimes i lie awake, wondering if i'll get out of here,

But the words stick in my throat and i stay.

I remember lying there, wishing i could be someone else,

Trying to find somehow to get away

If i asked him nicely d'you think he's show me how to fly,

'cos the dust has weighed my wings down, and i'm too tired to try.
