Jam - Away From The Numbers lyrics

Album: In The City (1977)

Things are getting just too cozy for me
And I see people as they see me
Going to break away & 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 & drink beer
(somewhere´s 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 am going to be
Away from the numbers
Away from the numbers
Is where I´m free

I was sick & tired of my little niche
Well going to break away & find where life´s

And all those fools I thought were my friends
(coaching is easy)
They now stare at me & don´t see a thing
(reality´s so hard)
Until their life´s over & they start to moan
How they never had the chance to make good

Away from the numbers
Away from the numbers
Is where I am going to be
Away from the numbers
(away from the numbers)
Away from the numbers
Is where I´m free
Is where I´m free
Is where I am going to be
Is reality

Reality´s so hard, reality´s so hard...
