Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was spendin' my time in the doldrums
I was caught in a cauldron of hate
I felt persecuted and paralyzed
I thought that everything else would just wait
[Verse 2]
While you are wasting your time on your enemies
Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night
[Verse 3]
To martyr yourself to caution
Is not gonna help at all
'Cause there'll be no safety in numbers
When the right one walks out of the door
[Verse 4]
Can you see your days blighted by darkness?
Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?
Stuck in a world of isolation
While the ivy grows over the door
[Verse 5]
So I open my door to my enemies
And I ask, could we wipe the slate clean?
But they tell me to please go fuck myself
You know you just can't win
Written by: David Gilmour, Polly Samson
