'Cause I'm all relentless
'Cause I don't remember
'Cause I've been a prisoner all my life
And I can see you.
'Cause I've been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you.
'Cause I've been in business all my life
And I can sue you.
'Cause I've been a prisoner all my life
And I can say to you.
And it helps to keep me home
And it helps to keep me warm
I can't see what I'm feeling
I can't see but I feel it
I'm an old and married man
I'm an ordinary man
I've got so far horizons
I don't wish it for to start.
I've got no far horizons
I don't wish upon a star.
Pay, pay me home
Take, take me home
Scars up above
Stars up above
Seems so long I've been waiting
And I still don't know I'm poor.
Seems so long I've been waiting
And I still don't know what for.
So chase, chase me home
So take, take me home
Someday, take me home
So take, take me home
Sunday, take me home
So take, take me home
Take that look off your face
I'm a lonely married man.
Take that look of worry
I'm an ordinary man.
Take that look over me
Take that look of worry
Tape-tape me home
Take-take me home
There's a fire, it's been burning bright outside my door.
There's a fire that's been burning right outside my door.
They can't think that I've listened
Only I know who they are.
They don't think that I listen
Oh, but I know who they are.
Working with this daylight
And sleep you when it smiles.
Working when it's daylight
And sleeping when it's night.
You deserve a go at me.
You deserve a girl like me.
You're my sweet reflection
You're my sweet affliction
