CULTURE SHOCK LYRICS

"You Are Not Alone"

I went down the street
In the center of somewhere I live
And someone was standing there watching me
Eyes averted so I couldn't see
But I did - yes I did

Why do people try to pretend to be so unimpressed?
We see our faces twitch we recognize
The empty space that fills our eyes
Unless we ask for a match, fumble with phrases
Ask for directions to obvious places
Say you'd forgotten - 'So you live here too?'
Prise out the answers
Prise out the answers, swap queries and glances
It starts off a friendship
And even romances
And if you get the words thrown back in your face
Then you that that was not the time, not the place
Not the person you might need to feel up that blank space

But don't forget if you feel on your own
That person right next to you could feel the same
Unloved or unwanted, repressed or unknown
Until they're discovered unknown they remain
They could be belligerent, but then again
They could be the person who needs you as a friend
Needs you as a friends
Sometimes you despise yourself - you are not alone
Everyone needs someone else - you are not alone
You are not alone, you are not alone!

And someone out there is needing you
Just to have somebody to talk to
Just like you always want them to do
You are not alone
You are not alone
You are not alone
Sometimes you despise yourself - you are not alone
Everyone needs someone else - you are not alone
