Hastings Street Lyrics

I'm living down Hastings Street
Got the whole world at my feet
I did my best and I tried not to quit
Hiding away in my scared stiff bed sit

And I've got no more heroes
It looks like my future's a mess
There's people starving all over this place
Lines on my forehead running down my face

I didn't want to grow up this fast
I thought my fun would last
Now there's nothing left to shout about
Nothing left dying for

There's no one here
Just me and my problems
I gave up my dreams of escaping
I know there's no room at the top Said I've grown unfriendly and I trust no one

Lord I wish I could turn the picture off
'Cos I'm living in a scene from a cop show
And even the good guys are bad
Proud men ye used to have to buy them
Now you've got to dry them out

I didn't want to grow up this fast, etc.

Scream like a knife cut the silence
Oh God I hope I locked the door
Things didn't turn out like I'd planned
Losing my life in this no man's land

I'm living down Hastings Street, etc.
