The Jam - Away From The Numbers lyrics

Things are getting just too cozy for me And i see people as they see me Gonna break away and gain control You free your mind You free your soul I was the type who knocked at old men (history's easy) Who together at tables sit and drink beer (somewhere is really) Then i saw that i was really the same So this link's breaking away from the chain Away from the numbers Away from the numbers Is where i'm gonna be Away from the numbers Away from the numbers Is where i am free I was sick and tired of my little niche Well gonna break away and find where life is And all those fools i thought were my friends (coaching is easy) They now stare at me and don't see a thing (reality's so hard) Till their life is over and they start to moan How they never had the chance to make good Away from the numbers Away from the numbers Is where i'm gonna be Away from the numbers (away from the numbers) Away from the numbers Is where i am free Is where i am free Is where i'm gonna be Is reality Reality's so hard, reality's so hard...
