Текст песни Radiohead - Prove Yourself

I can not afford to breathe in this time
Nowhere to sit without a gun in my hand
Hooked back up to the cathode ray
I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

I wanna breathe, I wanna grow
I'd say I want it but I do not know how
I work, I bleed, I beg and I pray
But I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
I'm better off

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

Why?
 I can not breathe freely in this city
Nowhere to sit down without a gun in his hand
Go back to the telly , the tube radiation
Would that I had died
[ I was more fortunate than the dead man ]
Would that I had died

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

I want to breathe, I want to grow
Easy to say : I want to - but I do not know how
Work, bleed , please , pray
But - would be better if I died
Would that I had died .
Test yourself .
Would that I had died .

Prove yourself
Prove yourself
Prove yourself

But why ?
