swimming back against the river

was caught in a net

same dream, same scene every trip

but I keep rising with the tide

a sudden slip

here's my same different ending

bathing in stinging rain

from station to station

a stride through the web

from station to station

defences down

from station to station

with the trust of a child

signs of aggravation

face behind a face

from station to station

got it on this tape

you must have seen it on tv

how I was strung up for all the world to see

so sick, yet so pristine

a 24-hour (black 'n' white) movie

so hard to lie down and turn away

when you're in every scene

on your last station

I bet you can't conceal it done everything you can?

from station to station

'cos we end as we began

and it's as real as anything you've touched or seen

every chance, every chance I take

I take it on my dead-end track
