"Living On A Thin Line"

D.Davies

All the stories have been told of kings and days of old but there's no England now
All the wars that were won and lost, somehow don't seem to matter very much anymore
All the lies we were told, all the lies of the people running round, they're castles have burned
I see change but inside we're the same as we ever were.

Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line
Living this way, each day is a dream
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?

Now another century nearly gone
What are we gonna leave for the young ?
What we couldn't do, what we wouldn't do
It's a crime but does it matter ?
Does it matter much, does it matter much to you ?
Yes it really, really matters
Yes it really, really matters.

Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?

Now another leader says
Break their hearts and break some heads
Is there nothing we can say or do ?
Blame the future on the past
Always lost in bloody guts
And when they're gone, it's me and you.

Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line, ooh
Tell me now, what are we supposed to do ?
Living on a thin line, ooh, ooh.

Ooh.
