I swear to God
I heard the earth inhale
Moments before
It spat its rain down on me

I swear to God
In this light and on this evening
London's become
The most beautiful thing I've seen

No one understands, the way you found your God,
there's a bullet in your hands,
Give a dog a bone, feed him for the day,
and teach him how to kill and,
I am the posted fence, I am the city wall,
stealing pounds and pence from you all.
Still no one understands, the way you found your God,
there's a bullet in your hands.

Pour salt water on the wound,
pour salt water on the wound,
this home is more than Bricks and Mortar,
pour salt water on the wound.

When the boys told you, you have the arms of a soldier,
those arms will never hold her again.
It's just like I told you, when the boys told you,
he's gonna be a soldier for me!

Pour salt water on the wound,
pour salt water on the wound,
this home is more than Bricks and Mortar,
pour salt water on the wound.

I hope life is good for you.
I hope life is good for you.
Now I hope life is good for you,
I hope life is good for you aaaaaaaaaaaah.
I hope life, I hope life, Now I hope life..!

Make our escape you're my own papillon
Won't turn too fast feel love before it's dark
It kicks like a sleep twitch
My papillon feel love where it's dark
It kicks like a sleep twitch

Darling just don't put down your guns yet
If there really was a god here
He'd have raised a hand by now
Darling you were born get old and die here
Well that's quite enough for me too
We'll find our own home somehow

No sense of doubt of what you can achieve
I'd send you out I've seen the life you wish to lead
Well it kicks like a sleep twitch
You will choke choke on the air you try to breathe
It kicks like a sleep twitch

Darling just don't put down your guns yet
If there really was a god here
He'd have raised a hand by now
Darling you were born get old and die here
Well that's quite enough for me too
We'll find our own home somehow
It kicks like a sleep twitch

You don't know love like you used to.
You don't feel love like you did before.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh!

You ran with the dead today, with the moles from the CIA,
they see more than you ever see.
Headlights in your rear view mirror, a panther's eyes as he preys on fear,
you hunt for love, you electioneer.

Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!

You ran with the dead today, fill the cemeteries where ghosts still play,
before you run, look out further away.
Here look at the soaring sight, I saw everything with dying pride, the truth in your eyes.

Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!

You don't know love like you used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.
You don't feel love like you used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.

Ohhhhhhhhhh!
Ohhhhhhhhhh!

You don't know love like you used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.
You don't know love like you used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.
You don't know love like you used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.
Now you don't know love like u used to,
You don't feel love like you did before.

You don't know love like you used to.

I'm turning in my skin, alcoholic dim,
fills the room we're in.
Girl, I think it's time we leave,
like a theif on Christmas Eve,
take and you shall recieve.
No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside.

Won't crowd amongst the shadows,
see how much our love glows,
reflected in shop windows,
I love you as my blood flows,
as the rain ruins my best clothes,
you're a secret only I know.
No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside.
No need to ask, 'cause you already know the way I feel inside.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Damn the passing hours,
damn those other flowers,
they took what once was ours,
they took what once was ours,
they took what once was ours,
they took what once was ours,
they took what once was ours.
No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside.
No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside.

The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours,
The took what once was ours.

No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside!
No need to ask, you already know the way I feel inside.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

A bruised full moon play fights with the stars
This Place is our prison
Itґs cells are the bars
So take me to town
I wanna dance with the city
Show me something ugly,
and show me something pretty

Damn this place makes a boy out of me
The Ring meets my face by the count of three

An Unwanted sun pulls rank in the sky
The Boxer isn't finished
He's not ready to die
I'm attracted to the light
I'm attracted to the heat
It's a violent night
There are boxers in the street

Damn this place makes a boy out of me
The Ring meets my face by the count of three
And damn this place makes a boy out of me
The rain meets my Face before an oak tree

Dazed in the final count
Dazed in the final count
Dazed in the final count
Dazed in the final count

Ain't it just like the old days
Wait and see how the hand plays
Living out our second hand clichés
Ain't it just like the old days
You are what you eat
You'll become digested
Well love, it isn't felt
Love is tested
You will keep forever
I'll bry you like a treasure
We gotta get friends in high places
Hide behind their plastic faces
Rip up the flag and replace it
Dance with our friends in high places
I used to want to be you
Now where's your shadow?
You're see through

I don't wanna be ignored, oh God!
When I'm gone, I've lost this fight.
You're chewing with an open mouth, raw meat,
your blood drool attracts the flies.

I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her!

I don't wanna be left out, or get stalked,
but there's a talent in your lies.
If you're chewing with an open mouth, raw meat,
your blood drool attracts the flies.

I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her!
I give a bit to myself, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her!

Don't wait for the sun. The earth, your story's been spun,
These lies, they just wanna have fun.
The earth, the damage is done.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (x4)

I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her!
I give a bit to myself, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her!

I give a little to her! (x4)

A winter wind blows in from the north
Scratches your spine cold like the forth
But you're a long way from home
Through the dark we tiptoe
The hospital looms as we walk fleet road

Refrain
Hold your tongue
Swallow your venom
You're too young
Hold your tongue

No push and no shove
Spit verbal mace
Hate can turn to love
Not for this human race

Refrain 2x

My heart will explode as we walk the fleet road

Baby don't go and lose it again,
You would always run,
Out of the sun and into the rain.

This house just creeps, it won't let you sleep.
All that noise, there in your brain,
Won't give you peace.

It says
I won't let you go where there's rivers or townfolks,
I won't let you see 'cause you're safe here, safe here with me.

Baby, don't go, and love him again,
You will always leap,
Into a fire, into a flame.

This house just aches, to keep you save.
You're in every single thing.
You're in the walls, you're in the space.

It says
I won't let you go, where there's rivers or townfolks,
I won't let you see 'cause you're safe here, safe here with me.

I won't let you go where there's rivers or townfolks,
I won't let you see 'cause you're safe here, safe here with me.

Don't let your friends know, you can't pay your debts.
Don't let your friends know, you can't pay your debts.

Don't let your friends know, you can't pay your debts.
Don't let your friends know, you can't pay your debts.

Don't let your friends know...
Oh-Ah-Oh-Oh...
Oh-Ah-Ah-Oh...

There's blood in the sky,
It bleeds from the land

Behind those eyes,
Diamonds turn to sand.

Such a beautiful fall,
I saw the surface break,

The water's so cold,
Your body shakes.

On a stormy day the clouds move too fast to see,
The shapes they make or how they wrap,
Our little world right up.

Ohhhhhh!
I'm in your garden, but I want a forest.
I'm in god's garden,
I'll make it a forest,
I'll make it a forest.

You cut your ideas, in your own way,
The silly little plans, the games you play.

You try to make me lose faith,
We're all made that way.

There's a diamond in the rough,
There's a needle in the hay.

On a stormy day the clouds move too fast to see,
The shapes they make or how they wrap,
Our little world right up.

Ohhhhhh!
I'm in your garden, but I want a forest,
I'm in god's garden,
I'll make it a forest...

I'm in your garden, but I want a forest,
I'm in god's garden,
I'll make it a forest,
I'll make it a forest.

The kids are dancing tonight, maybe we'll join them.
There's blood in the air tonight, it crushes the boredom.
Grab your coats, get to the boats, head to the coast.
Tonight we sail to the edge of the world.

Get out of this house now,
Head for the horizon.
Tonight we take the town,
So pick your poison.

Here's a toast, a life as a ghost is better than most,
If we have our love in the gutter.

Dance, fucker, dance,
You were born to entertain,
Sing, choir boy, sing,
Wash your sins down the drain,
In a violent haze, under the streetlights' gaze,
Dance, fucker, dance,
You were born to entertain!

Now without water,
Death takes us before hunger,
We dug a well for the water,
We put on this fire!

Dance, fucker, dance,
You were born to entertain,
Sing, choir boy, sing,
Wash your conscience down the drain,
In a violent haze, under the streetlights' gaze,
Dance, fucker, dance,
You were born to entertain!

Girl
You did this to yourself.
I wish your good heart and good health
Once, your ships were coming in
Now your hands have shed the final skin

Scratching in the dark, in the dark with no remark
And you're human yet.
Searching for belief, with the grit in your teeth
And you're human yet.

Babe
You did this to yourself.
I wish your good heart and good health
Once, your ships were coming in
Now your hands have shed the final skin

Scratching in the dark, in the dark with no remark
And you're human yet.
Searching for belief, with the grit in your teeth
And you're human yet.

Scratching in the dark, in the dark with no remark
And you're human yet.
Searching for belief, with the grit in your teeth
And you're human yet.

A human yet
Human yet

Hmmm Hmmmm Hmmmmm Hmmm Hmm Hmm Hmm
Human yet.
Hmmm Hmmmm Hmmmmm Hmmm Hmm Hmm Hmm
Hmmm Hmmmm Hmmmmm Hmmm Hmm Hmm Hmm
Hmmm Hmmmm Hmmmmm Hmmm Hmm Hmm Hmm

Here's where the wind leaves its mark across your face,
And the ocean knows more than we'll ever know.
Wake from our sleep, we are crippled but unique,
A cat in a bag meets the undertow

Make to the fields that are neighbouring your town,
Take all that you can carry.
Play with the fire and let the money burn,
It only bought a lack of sincerity.

Who's gonna make us better,
If we won't believe there are things left to say?
And who's gonna take away the slaughter,
And put us to bed at the end of the day?

Here's where the wind leaves its mark across your face,
A perfect place to fall on your sword.
Keep your hands to yourself,
Overestimate your wealth,
Don't touch what you can't afford.

Who's gonna make us better,
If we won't believe there are things left to say?
We watch as the dust settles around us,
Now put us to bed at the end of the day.

And everyone says:
"One for the money!
Two for the money!
Three for the money!
Four for the money!
Five for the money!
Six for the money!
Seven for the money!
Eight for the money!"
