Before I Was Caught

Jay Reatard

Sometimes I have to run
To think it all becomes way too much
All the things I want and need in life
Seem like the things I never
I never ever touch

I don't deserve the best
The best I will settle will
Revolve with all the rest is rest
And I will sleep my days away
While the others will trust
I try my best

And then it comes to me
My thoughts were all
Were all inside my head

I control my destiny
Until I'm lying
I'm lying
I'm lying
Alone in bed

I raise my head to feel and try
I try to squeeze out a scene from thoughts
But then I fall
I fall asleep
And dream about before

Before I was caught
Before I was caught
Before I was caught
Before I was caught
Before I was caught
Before I was caught
