Like Straw Dogs

All i have is words, words that don't obtain
And i feel i'm a stain on your horizon
So i stay away - it's easier that way
And there won't be no-one i need to rely on
Is it him, is it me
Or is there something only i can see
How did i get here, why do we blow around like straw dogs
On the breeze
I'm a special one, what they used to say
But i've to stay on, finish levels-a
You don't need exams when you've read john gray
But you look like you know the way to stop these colours
Turning into grey
All my brilliant friends stuck in shitty jobs
All the lizard men inheriting the earth
Nature's gonna get you, nature's gonna get you
We don't have much time
They can't hear you sarah, i can't see you now sir
Here comes wintertime, comedown in our prime
Just as you get started, everyone you trusted ready for
The new wave
Ready for the new wave
