Lyrics
Claustrophobia
It's blown up in my face
In search of Mars and Space
Maybe there's gold in those hills
A trip away could cure these ills
A place with a view
A place with a view
A place with a view
A place with a view
The source of anger
I can't recall
I have no angle
I've hit the wall
Fly south for the winter
Rejection is a killer
A place with a view
A place with a view
A place with a view
A place with a view
Take me away
Take me away
Take me away
