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
[Chorus:]
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
Cause 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?
[Chorus to fade]
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 [Chorus:] 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 Cause 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?
