Too Uptight Lyrics - Graham Coxon

Once there was a nothing 

The voices rang so true 

The knowledge that was lacking 

Cut innocence in two 

Everything seemed too good to be right 

When I was 16 

I was too uptight 

Now disappointment's shadow 

Reveals a colder time 

A harder kind of living 

In disillusion 

How can it go 

The fear of the night 

Now I am grown 

I'm just too uptight

A slow and noble breakdown of personality 

Careless, heartless, soulless, 

No dignity 

My days are flown 

And I can't recall 

Feeling so alone 

Was I so uptight 

Photos 

Death creeps ever closer 

A darkness falls in me 

A scared fragmented loner 

Unholy 

A night with no end 

An echoing sea 

I'll think about me 

How I'm too uptight
