The Waifs - Taken lyrics

Night-time, I stage my street show Yeah, love for money, that's my cash flow No I don't get scared when I walk alone 'Cause I have been on this beat enough to know That when sh** happens it is just your turn And you deal with it And it happens everyday (yeah it happens) I don't know quite where I belong So when they come I freely give myself away Yeah I walk about A very different kind of walkabout A very different place and time And I stand under street lights Dreaming of a moon and it is rising in a desert A life I never knew Taken away Taken away And now I'm walking by myself Taken away Taken away And now I'm walking by myself When you grow up in institutions You make your friends, but love you never know So it was when I found my blood ran from the desert Yeah, then I knew it was somewhere I had to go So I went down to the people there I lost and found myself on either side Something deep down just don't feel right 'Cause I walk about this country And I walk about these streets to find where my heart lies A very different kind of walkabout A very different place and time And I stand under street lights Dreaming of a moon and it is rising in a desert A life I never knew Taken away Oh, taken away And now I'm walking by myself Taken away Taken away And now I'm walking by myself Ooh walkin' walkin' Walking by myself Ooh walkin' walkin' Walking by myself Ooh walkin' walkin' Walking by myself Ooh walkin' walkin' Walking by myself
