Soon
soon i was leaving
easier than believing
soon i was working with you
bored out of my skull
something to do
i was doing my time
soon everything was fine
you were on top of things
but cutting out fast
you have got to be quick
before you come off worse
soon i was here
with my words intact
things were becoming clear
fantasy melted into fact
and suddenly everything was near
