The wind of change transformed the plains into the desert. And on the lower levels demons scream delight. Places of worship have ceased to serve the purpose.
Drink and be merry, for tomorrow we may die. It's better to laugh than it is to cry. My cup runneth over with blood and not wine. The last was the flood, it's fire this time.
And in our ignorance we let them take control. And in their wisdom they decreed that we should bow. . Their grips extending to encompass all the world.
I just buried a friend. He had come to the end. But I can't help feeling that it needn't have been. Caught in the flak. There was no turning back. So he laid down his life for some psychopath's dream.
Rise into the light. And set a flame to the night. We must destroy the institution of fear. Every shadow of doubt. Grind it out. There is a vision now becoming so clear.
Sing to your sisters, your brothers are dead. The army retreated, the soldiers have fled. The carcass of nations lies out on the plain. For many to question but none to explain.
What will you do when your properties gone?. When the finger on the triggers your one and only son?. When the money in your pocket cannot buy even bread?.
Welcome to Cell Block 427 it's 10 o'clock at night. Can you see the rows of bodies twitching in their sleep. And if you're hungry, if you fancy a bite.
Lock up your children the axeman is coming. Lock up your children the axeman is coming. Lock up your children the axeman is running. Lock up your children he's here!.
Well we've all heard the sermon seen. The preachers or worshipped the stage. Heard the new manifesto? It's all questions no solutions at all. Well, you're out on your own now, always have been.
Leave your cares behind. Come with us and find. The pleasures of a journey to the center of the mind. . (CHORUS). Come along if you care. Come along if you dare.
Cheers to the day I'm on my way. I'm living inside with the words you say. It's killing me. How you're always bringing me down. So put to rest this breath that i can't forget.
I never came to see this falling,. There's a truth for every word,. To be the one to take what's handed,. At a loss I fear the worse. Is yet to come as I hold back tonight.
From your words, I can tell youve lost a reason,. The will to carry on. No chance that we will make it,. Youve faked it for so long. But Im standing here before for you,.
I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two. Lying awake intent at tuning in on you. If I was young it didn't stop you coming through. . Oh a oh. . They took the credit for your second symphony.
So why should I take your hand when you can't promise happy endings?. . It's starting to get old. That story yet untold. Reflect before we walk into. What we already know.
You don't care about impossible. Something I wish I could learn from you. Write me down is the best idea you had. Watch the fire fly 'cause I struck the match tonight.
Amber Pacific lyrics - The Right To Write Me Off. . Can we make this last forever. With every word we're growing distant. And I feel as though I have to let you know.
I faintly remember yesterday,. Oh so close yet far away,. From the lives that we once etched in stone. Who would think that it would last. Please just give it one more chance.
I found a new life with you here. A life that will burn bright through the years. I can tell in the way you look. The signals are so clear. . I want a big house in the hills.
