one of the best Bowie Tracks if not THEEE best.
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette
The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Ohhh how how how, youre a rock n roll suicide
Youre too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clocks waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe but you dont eat when youve lived too long
Oh, no, no, no, youre a rock n roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Dont let the sun blast your shadow
Dont let the milk float ride your mind
Youre so natural - religiously unkind
Oh no love! youre not alone
Youre watching yourself but youre too unfair
You got your head all tangled up but if I could only
Make you care
Oh no love! youre not alone
No matter what or who youve been
No matter when or where youve seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
Ive had my share, Ill help you with the pain
Youre not alone
Just turn on with me and youre not alone
Lets turn on with me and youre not alone (wonderful)
Lets turn on and be not alone (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Gimme your hands cause youre wonderful (wonderful)
Oh gimme your hands.

@redrover327 My son loved this song. It was on the history on the last day of his life, with Adam Green's I wanna Die, before he killed himself 3 days after his 16th birthday. I cannot tell, cannot express the destruction and pain you cause when you do this. YOu are so loved, even when you cannot see it, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Please tell someone PLEASE, if you feel this way.

@treytoshable im glad that poor childs life meant something to you tho. and im sure more people cared about him than he knew. if anyone reads this who is being bullied or anything like that. things do get better if you can stick it out. dont be afriad to seek help from adults. worst case scenario bring a fucking spanner/wrench one day in your school bag/back pack and knock the fucking shit out of those cunts. weak people like bullies only respond to strength

@redrover327 i dont want to make you feel bad mate, but its important to stand up to cunty bullies like that. im sure the kid who was bullied couldnt do it for himself like some people are able to. i really dont want to make you feel bad pal, at least you can acknowledge it now. just take it as a lesson in the future. if you see something that you know is wrong, make your voice heard and stand up for what you know is right. im no where near perfect, we all have to strive to improve.

@LadyMoonwitch I hate when people compare David Bowie to god. I mean, sure, he's good, but he's not David!!!

There's a kid at my school who recently killed himself because he was bullied to a point where he could no longer handle it. They found his body by the train tracks today. I feel incredibly bad that I never did anything when they were picking on him.
This song reminds me of how unnecessary suicide is. I think I play this song at my school's talent show in April, dedicating it to him.
Rest in peace, Alex.
