I'm Doing Fine

I'm Doing Fine

everyone has
their own centre to this universe
but it stops right there
and kids who try and see it all
writing graffiti on the wall
but it stops right there
and we're all in the know
from one television show
but it stops right there
and take care of yourself
cos it's all about ourselves
and it stops right there
I'm lost looking in a sea of faces everywhere
now where did she go ?
I need to find her quickly
to immerse my insecurity
I'm lonely amongst these people
and I need to feel love
and I need to feel part of something
is that strange ?
and why are they reluctant to talk and why do they look alone when they walk ?
I see a face but no names
but despite my confusion
I've come to the conclusion
that people
need people
it's something I forget
but I've come to accept
that people
need people
and I'm alright
and I'm ok
I'm surviving well
without you
and what did you want
and what did you expect
did you want me to still talk about you?
no
no way
I'm on my own now
and doing fine
no
no way
I'm on my own now
and doing fine
and anyone can give
money to a good cause
but it stops right there
and anyone can sign
a petition to change the law
but it stops right there
and we can believe in socialism
or any theorism
but it stops right there
and take care of yourself
cos it's all about yourself
and it stops right there
but I'm not part of this
I'm not seeing what they're seeing
I'm staring at the ceiling at the world
to see what is lying
on the horizon
maybe I'll see you again someday girl
but despite my raw deal
I still feel
that people
need people
it's something we forget
but we must accept
that people
need people
and I'm alright
and I'm ok
I'm surviving well without you
and what did you want
and what did you expect
did you want me to still talk about you?
no
no way
I'm on my own now
and doing fine
no
no way
I'm on my own now
and doing fine
I'm doing fine
