|
The light is bending early |
|
Around the prodigal |
|
The gunner whispers gently |
|
His shadow on the wall |
|
The crowd is bursting from me |
|
A single animal |
|
It finds its freedom early |
|
They're going to take it all |
|
This independence |
|
We are the metal shell |
|
10,000 bodies |
|
Run from an empty well |
|
All of your lovers |
|
Are heroes in my bed |
|
All night the echoes |
|
Of breathing heads |
|
A falling body near me |
|
A silent angry cry |
|
A miracle of purpose |
|
Looks up into the sky |
|
A camera crew is running |
|
The world is shrinking fast |
|
Tonight you drink your coffee |
|
And watch the world aghast |
|
This independence |
|
We are the metal shell |
|
10,000 bodies |
|
Run from an empty well |
|
All of your lovers |
|
Are heroes in my bed |
|
All night the echoes |
|
Of breathing heads |
|
A camera crew is running |
|
The world is shrinking fast |
|
Tonight you drink your coffee |
|
And watch the world aghast |
