Looking Sweeter

the world looks sweeterand i feel neateri have got my feet backi have got a little self respect control the drinkingcontrol the thinkingstrange bed companionscan’t stop a ship sinkingor the traits of champions the world looks easierand eases into a chairi have found my lifeand now it is good to share who wants to fight?control the thinkingcontrol the drinkingcontrol the leaving the world changeswith every change, in your pulsethe sea gets strongerthe pain is a strange strainBut not for much longer James Garratt – Monday 26th June 2000
