“Special interests” taking me out of this world, to the stars

ASC did his own remix of this in his Spatial show this month and I had to come back to the original, classy - Burial is almost reminding me of Caretaker a bit here.

Crazy, but that's how it goes Millions of people living as foes Maybe it's not too late To learn how to love And forget how to hate Mental wounds not healing Life's a bitter shame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I've listened to preachers I've listened to fools I've watched all the dropouts Who make their own rules One person conditioned to rule and control The media sells it and you live the role Mental wounds still screaming Driving me insane I'm going off the rails on a crazy train I know that things are going wrong for me You gotta listen to my words Heirs of a cold war That's what we've become Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb Crazy, I just cannot bear I'm living with something that just isn't fair Mental wounds not healing Who and what's to blame I'm going off the rails on a crazy train

People look to me and say Is the end near, when is the final day? What's the future of mankind? How do I know? I got left behind
How am I supposed to know Hidden meanings that will never show? Fools and prophets from the past Life's a stage and we're all in the cast
You've gotta believe in someone Asking me who is right Asking me who to follow Don't ask me, I don't know
Nobody ever told me, I found out for myself You've gotta believe in foolish miracles It's not how you play the game, it's if you win or lose You can choose Don't confuse Win or lose It's up to you
People look to me and say Is the end near, when is the final day? What's the future of mankind? How do I know? I got left behind I'm lost
Everyone goes through changes Looking to find the truth Don't look at me for answers Don't ask me, I don't know

I feel Astrud and Brasil 66 anytime I decide to listen. For mid 60's f'ing sick.
