Internal Release

Citizen Fish

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
