Ian Curtis was nine months older than me, and very much sang about how I felt during the late '70s. His suicide 1 week before my 23rd birthday was crushing.
Sometimes, like today, I can still feel the hopelessness and despair of that time in my life. Everyone thought that I was doing so well - I was in the Navy, travelling the world and gaining so much knowledge and experience. If they had only known how badly I felt inside.
Wow, what a trippy coincidence! As I am typing this, my cellular rang and it was my psychologist calling to re-schedule our 'phone consultation later today!
Think of you with pipe and slippers Think of her in Bed Laying there just watching telly Then think of me instead
I'll never grow so old and flabby That could never be Don't marry her, fuck me
And your love light shines like cardboard But your work shoes are glistening She's a Ph.D in 'I told you so' You've a knighthood in 'I'm not listening'
She'll grab your sweaty bollocks Then slowly raise her knee Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay And you realise you can't make it anyway You have to wash the car Take the kiddies to the park Don't marry her, fuck me
Those lovely Sunday mornings With breakfast brought in bed Those blackbirds look like knitting needles Trying to peck your head
Those birds will peck your soul out And throw away the key Don't marry her, fuck me
And the kitchen's always tidy And the bathroom's always clean She's a diploma in 'just hiding things' You've a first in 'low esteem'
When your socks smell of angels But your life smells of brie Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay And you realise you can't make it anyway You have to wash the car Take the kiddies to the park Don't marry her, fuck me
And the Sunday sun shines down on San Francisco bay And you realise you can't make it anyway You have to wash the car Take the kiddies to the park Don't marry her, fuck me

Dont be afraid to be you
I'm not a perfect person There's many things I wish I didn't do But I continue learning I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you It's something I must live with everyday And all the pain I put you through I wish that I could take it all away And be the one who catches all your tears Thats why i need you to hear
I've found a resaon for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is You [x4]
I'm not a perfect person I never meant to do those things to you And so I have to say before I go That I just want you to know
I've found a reason for me To change who I used to be A reason to start over new and the reason is you
I've found a reason to show A side of me you didn't know A reason for all that I do And the reason is you
