  • So are we erasing ourselves

    I am a return
    Was born unheard
    But anyhow
    Me was a word
    A word just like now
    And so I learned a need
    For anyone
    And so I know of
    Need from anyone

    A life ahead
    A life of ordinary mind
    I said no no
    I am a child of the divine
    And so I was told
    There was no need for anyone
    Yeah, I saw my soul
    And I was seeing what it was
    All lies ahead
    For life of shaking off crime
    All eyes ahead
    And I was working my mind
    And so it goes
    No need for anyone
    And so I forego
    A need, no

    Well, I am erasing myself
    The love I need is out there
    Worlds I'm leaving
    And the door really goes somewhere
    Where all I need is myself
    And learn all leads to an end
    Worlds, I'm leaving
    And this door really goes somewhere

    Sometimes you look
    And you look just like you learned
    And some go on
    And on some kind of terms
    And ever again we march on
    Like everyone
    And ever again
    I ran from all the freaks and priests
    Who were hunting me down with attitude
    And the heat and the bricks
    Were falling on me like doom
    Till I seen just everything I had to lose
    And I told myself about all I had to do

    Oh I am erasing myself
    The love I need is out there
    Worlds I am leaving
    And the door really goes somewhere
    Where all I need is myself
    And learn all leads to an end
    Worlds, I'm leaving
    And this door really go somewhere Writer/s: JAMES DOVIAK, JOHNNY MARR
