Straight Narrow - Lyrics by Teenage Fanclub


Lyrics
You were on the straight and narrow 
You were going round the bend
and looking for a friend

Well you took off optimistic
but you landed on your head
and now you're walking dead

[
Chorus]

What did you find
In the maze of your mind
Did it feel like the end of the road

Cigarettes they burnt your fingers
you were weak and you were sore
but still you had to score

When they found you in the basement
you were face down on the floor
and you could take no more

[
Chorus]

What did you find
in the maze of your mind
did it feel like the end of the road

Didn't need a second warning
When you saw the others die
you couldn't even cry
