What You Know

The Levellers

Have you seen an ocean
Deep and wide 
Have you been an island 
Lost inside 
Have you ever walked the streets 
In black and white 
But you're in colour 
Alienated and afraid 

You look in from the outside 
As you go through 
You keep on walking 
But you don't know what to do 
But there's plenty of time
In a day 
But in a town 
Your mind can go away 

So I take a walk 
Get out of the place 
Where all the trees 
Have a concrete face 
So when the pressure's on 
And there's nowhere left to go 
You're gonna have to come to terms 
To terms of what you know through
