Alan Watts - Never Come Back Lyrics

[Intro: Alan Watts]
So we say in popular speech
“I have a body” not “I am a body”
But I “have” one, because I am the owner of the body
In the same way as I own an automobile
And I can take the automobile to the mechanic
And occasionally, the same way, I have to take my body
To the mechanic, the surgeon, dentist, the doctor
And have it repaired
But it belongs to me, it goes along with me, I’m in it
A child, for example, can ask mother
“Mom, who would I have been if my father had been someone elsе?”

[Chorus]
Baby come find me
I’ve run through thе black
But please don’t you try me
Or I’ll never come back

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh
I’m

[Verse 1]
Losing it
Who is “myself”?
Moonlight feels lonely all by myself
All alone again
Won’t you phone a friend?
Won’t you cross my name off my badge again?
I don’t need it anymore
I don’t see clear anymore
This foggy town is blinding me
I stand my ground but still retreat eventually
Maybe I’m too scared
But who really cares?
Maybe I’m too scared
But who really cares?
[Chorus]
Baby come find me
I’ve run through the black
But don’t fuckin’ try me
Or I’ll never come back

[Post-Chorus]
Anxiety, you’re a hell of a drug
But we’re fucking done

[Verse 2]
You’re a fucking drug
Depression got me stuck
I’m better off alone
I meant to write this song for you a week ago (so long ago)
Now I’m numb (so numb)
Don’t you say you love me
You don’t fucking know what love is (no)
So don’t say you do (don’t say it)
‘Cause it isn’t true (it isn’t)
I thought I knew you (I thought you were real)
I was dumb (so dumb)
I was wrong (so wrong)
Turn me to stone (stone)
Just leave me the fuck alone (leave me the fuck alone)
[Monologue]
I’d be lying if I said I knew what my purpose is
But at the same time
Residing in that uncertainty
Taking refuge in it
Like a log cabin in the middle of an unending woods
Can be peaceful
Maybe
