Suburbia, 1 am, you're walking home again

shopping bags and broken glass

I hate going through the underpass

I wish there was some other way around

but you got beaten up by the playground and it's no use

we'll have to go through the deserted shopping centre

pedestrian walkways I think they were meant to

make things better

but it's just emptier, and scary at nighttime.

Hatfield at that time.



This is the place I live

Where is everyone? Are we the only ones?

This is the place I live

And so does everyone, so does everyone.



Hatfield 1980

I'm seeing my first knife, my first ambulance ride

I hold your hand the whole way, crying.

Get home the next day, police have already been.

Well you can imagine the scene.



And if I'm going home, I better change my clothes,

I better change my clothes.

And if I'm going home, I better change my clothes,

I better change my clothes.



This is the place I live

where is everyone, are we the only ones?

This is the place I live

And so does everyone, so does everyone.



And when I'm looking back, I look for everyone

And when I fall down, I fall for anyone

When I'm looking back, I look for everyone

And when I fall down, I fall for anyone.
