Primal Scream The Centre Cannot Hold Lyrics

"The Centre Cannot Hold"



You wanna know how it feels to be free

You crave a glimpse of eternity

A prisoner of consensual reality

It's hard to fit in when you feel so strange

Suppressed emotions mark a chemical change

Locked down to your soul


Lovers drown each other

Trying to save their wretched souls

Falling ever further

'Cause the centre cannot hold


Shrinks and gurus sell you spiritual junk

This self-obsession is a rich man's curse

You've got karma to burn

Searching for meaning but the meaning is lost

You'll try to buy it whatever the cost

Keep on chasing the wind


Lovers drown each other

Trying to save their wretched souls

Falling ever further

'Cause the centre cannot hold


No one knows another

We can see only what they show

Hidden depths might harbour

Sacred monsters

The centre cannot hold


The centre cannot hold

The centre cannot hold

The centre cannot hold

The centre cannot hold

The centre cannot hold
