    Story Behind the Song
    Astray features numerous saxamophone tracks during the chorus, and at least one is off-key at all times; yes, its on purpose. The song was meant as a mockery to Radiohead, but not intentionally.

    Lyrics
    Looking for things that hide away
    Cant find the light of day to save my soul
    Want to find another way
    Or a better day

    Been shot down enough to know
    Got to find a place to grow
    A place inside my skull that approximates
    Slipping into atrophy
    Slow at first, then steadily
    Ive got to escape whats come over me

    Weve gone astray
    Possibly been blown away
    Things we know not to say
    Have all been said anyway

    Watching the tide on a sinking ship
    Losing my grip on the starboard bough
    Slipping through the waves
    They cant save me somehow

    Ive been locked in a prison cell
    Not quite sick but not quite well
    Defense lawyers could not sell my case to them
    Chisel at my inner piece
    Wonder can it ever cease
    Ive got to escape what theyve done to me

    Weve gone astray
    Possibly been blown away
    Things we know not to say
    Have all been said anyway
