Internal Release

Sat round a table, "What do you do?"

I put my neuroses on public view

Everyone sat round something to say

But contracting it all into "Have a nice day?"

Oh! -- When I said "Well no not really"

Oh! -- Aiming to let go of a lonely feeling

I sensed a tension unexpected

Normal question got redirected

Didn't it? You know I was taught

That's what friends are really for

This is a cry for communication

This is a sample of alienation

So I looked up from starting what may never ends

To see you looking for another friend

Are all your acquaintances so happy inside

Simplistic answers are the only replies

You get? And so it goes on

If everyone's happy then what could be wrong?

Needing to know that surrounded by plastic

Transient values & rapid-fire thrills

Internal release need not be so drastic

Create perceptions that none of us feel, fell, none of us feel

This is a cry for communication

This is a sample of alienation
