A Crisis In Mid Life - The Tangent[00:00:02]
Written by:Andy Tillison[00:00:05]
Feeling the sway of the bridge beneath me[00:00:50]
I watch the windsock strain[00:00:54]
Stepping with care as thought there's nothing beneath me[00:00:58]
Cause I'm alone again[00:01:02]
Feeling the strain of the lateral movement[00:01:22]
My escape is clear[00:01:26]
Follow the road in one of two directions[00:01:30]
Can I control the fear[00:01:34]
And I can feel it pulling the paranoia's rife[00:01:38]
There's nothing like a crisis in mid life[00:01:45]
Feeling the weight of my divided passions[00:02:04]
Coming and going like rain[00:02:08]
Taking my chances in my predictable fashions[00:02:12]
As all my plans go down the drain[00:02:16]
And I can feel it pulling the paranoia's rife[00:02:20]
Look in both directions I'm balanced on the knife[00:02:28]
There's nothing like a crisis in mid life[00:02:35]
The burble of canned music finds its way into my heart[00:02:46]
The soundtrack to the epg but I don't know where to start[00:02:53]
And all the people and all the humour[00:03:02]
And all the culture all the music all the things that we once knew[00:03:06]
Are wrapped in packets twelve by twelve on the shelves[00:03:11]
When we were young we had songs for our problems[00:06:22]
We had the money to pay[00:06:26]
Kids like us to write anthems for our teen years[00:06:30]
And blow our problems away[00:06:34]
But now we're in the middle[00:06:38]
Our heroes bought houseboats with their wives[00:06:41]
There's no one left to sing along with[00:06:45]
As we make the crossing of our middle lives[00:06:49]
There's nothing like a crisis[00:06:53]
There's nothing like a crisis[00:06:57]
There's nothing like a crisis in mid life[00:07:01]
