Couldn't stand the city
I had to get away
Drive myself down to the coast

For a couple of days
Love to take you with me
But I'm sure you'd never come

Don't know how you stay alive
Without seeing the sun
Look what you've become



Save yourself, just yourself

Don't think about no-one else
Save yourself, just yourself
I can't help you

Let them go, let them go



You're gonna get through alone
Save yourself, just yourself
Please.

Said he was a junkie
Everybody got involved
'Cos they're only trying to help

You would not be told
Wake up every morning
I try to show you what is good

But on the sly you'd go and try
Anything you could
How's that for gratitude?
