La Costa Rasa

A Kind of Life
 

See me, feel me; I am inside you I am here

Some things so bad can feel so good

Put your hand around my throat

Touch me, slowly, naked innocent and dumb

I am waiting with my mouth closed I am always waiting

For something…

​

Struck down with confusion I can offer no solution

Only the will to try and understand a kind of life

 

I am sleeping with your face inside my head

My eyes are closed so I can feel the warmth that crawls inside my bed

Hold me slowly and let the picture rise

Our fists have opened up as hands before this and they will again

For something…

 

Struck down with confusion I can offer no solution

Only the will to try and understand a kind of life

Struck down with confusion I can offer no solution

Only the will to try and understand a kind of life

 

Middle eight (noisy chorus) as chorus but double time

Cos I don’t intend to grow old - in this world

Cos there’s more than what goes on between these doors

I don’t intend to see the day, when all these madmen just sit down

Talk about “my world”

 

See me, feel me; I am inside you I am here

Some things so bad can feel so good

Put your hand around my throat

Touch me, slowly, naked innocent and dumb

I am waiting with my mouth closed I am always waiting

 

For something…

 

Struck down with confusion I can offer no solution

Only the will to try and understand a kind of life
