Johnathan Edwards, not a big fan of the song but I remember it from when I was a kid and it always been stuck in my head. Think the songs name is something line, Sunshine Go Away Today? 

"you can't even run your own life I'll be damn if you will run mine."
So you see, the only proof
Of what you are is in the way you hear the truth

Don’t be scared, live to win
Although they’re always gonna tell you it’s a sin

In the end, you’re on your own
And there is no one who can stop you being alone

Motorhead - Stay Clean
In the Avenues and Alleyways
While you sleep there's a whole world coming alive
Abel and his brother, fighting one another
In and out of every dive
The avenues and alleyways
Where the strong and the quick alone can survive
----

The avenues and alleyways
Where the soul of a man is easy to buy
Everybody's wheeling
Everybody's dealing
All the low are living high
Every city's got em
Can we ever stop em?
Some of us are gonna try

No one notices the customs slip away...

Al Stewart/On the Border/Year of The Cat
If you should go skating on the thin ice of modern life, dragging behind you the silent reproach and a million tear stained eyes, don’t be surprised when a crack in the ice appears under your feet. You slip out of your depth and out of your mind with your fear flowing out behind you, as you claw the thin ice.

As if that’s not-good enough, this is being sung to a baby. The sea may look warm to you babe, and the sky may look blue. Oooh ooh oooh Baby Blue. Epic.
