Say have you heard the news. Riots, looting and shootings. On the tube. As clouds of smoke. Rise up into the air. Sez it looks like trouble. So you better beware.
VERSE 1:. what do they all say. now that you've found. a new way to burn me down. a thousand tears. couldn't have saved us if I tried. I tried the hardest.
Coming out with my head high. Keeping my feet off the ground. I'm feeling right with you. Don't want it to end now. . It's a kind of sickness. Of the mind.
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling. From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.. The summer's gone, and all the roses falling,. It's you, it's you must go and I must bide..
silence is killing me. endlessly we dance. sadly no more do we talk. it's no longer in my hands. Tonight we see our future. And it's killing me. . Dance, dance because we have no time.
I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me. And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be. Oh, how can I forget you. When there is always something there to remind me.
From the time that you set foot upon this earth to pass your days. You are walking on borrowed ground, and you may stake no claims. To the soil and to the water, to the creatures lying by.
There's a place on this mountain. Where the trees all give way. To one sweet lupine meadow. Where the tall popple sway. In the distance cries a train.
Used to be a killer. Best killer in the land. Killed women and children. Just as easy as a man. . Leave their mangled bodies. Nonchalantly at the door.
Rising son, rising sun, beating down on me. I'm my daddy's rising son, world in front of me. But daddy, he ain't smilin' none, what could the problem be?.
We've been good for each other. Held each other through so much. Now you're sittin' there givin' me that little look. Have to ask what that means. . Comes a time for countin' losses.
Walk tall beneath these trees, boy. You monolith, not scarred by fallout. Us wolves were right behind you. And Lucifer will never find you, oh no. . The moon, let it guide you.
Wind in the wires. Electricity, on the edge of a cliff. Moments of transcendence. Sweet and transitory. . But here comes a rage. A crippling anger. Sea birds are blown into the rocks.
And I showed you my ugly heart. Yet you did not surrender. Love me back to life. Through my self destruction, December. . All paranoia's to trust. I turned my bodies functions, I remembered.
I am the tragedy. And the heroine. I am lost And I am rescuing. . The storm is come. And I am following. . My name is Tristan. And I am alive. . Forever young.
Alone again in Paris. Travel drained I write to you. You've been on my mind. Cold days, long nights. . A rooftop in Berlin I call. Confess the state I'm in.
The day our house collapsed,. I went down stream.. I followed the swans,. like i follow my dreams.. Oh! I was living on borrowed time,. in a borrowed house for a borrowed crime..
From the east to the south. I tongue the roof of my mouth. To new days of doubt without you. First gear. . I face the trouble ahead. Final word's been said.
The storm blows around. This harbour town. I listen to its wind as a choir. The shipping forecast. Is crackling. Like wet wood upon a fire. . And time slows and slips away.
