[00:19.04]Stevie said now don't look round they're watching us
[00:22.98]Two girls in the corner of that dodgy club
[00:27.04]And the grey eyes, the storm
[00:29.04]That I've come to know and wish for
[00:31.60]Before I caught a breath, well,
[00:33.41]She was standing there.
[00:34.85]
[00:35.79]We walked the streets of our town just talking
[00:39.85]And the dawn broke grey
[00:41.41]And freezing through the deserted blocks
[00:44.16]Just when your life is stale
[00:46.35]And there's reason there for everything
[00:48.73]Something comes to kick you up inside
[00:51.73]
[00:52.98]Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[00:57.29]A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[01:00.60]
[01:01.16]Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[01:05.41]Trying not to look down
[01:07.79]
[01:20.16]No Rest for the wicked is still how it goes
[01:22.79]Twisted up and turning in my bed alone
[01:26.98]And separation pains like a blunted amputation
[01:31.66]Pushing endless coins in the telephone
[01:35.99]Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[01:40.18]A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[01:43.28]
[01:44.15]Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[01:48.45]Trying not to look down
[01:50.70]
[01:52.01]We try not to look down
[01:55.51]
[01:57.13]So rest in these open arms
[02:01.95]And lie until they come for you
[02:06.07]And tell me everything you've ever felt,
[02:12.26]
[02:13.76]Tell me everything you want to see . . .
[02:18.01]
[02:27.63]Forever running even when we are standing still
[02:32.32]Driven on and fired up as the whirlwinds blow
[02:36.20]And shouting out inside "I'm proud of you,
[02:39.50]I'm proud of you"
[02:40.38]Ten thousand footsteps echo down the Brixton Road
[02:45.01]Eleven sweet years and no nearer home
[02:49.39]A hundred thousands miles through this battle zone
[02:53.45]Still high on the wire above the hollow darkness
[02:57.65]Trying not to look down
[03:00.59]
[03:01.83]We try not to look down
[03:05.01]
[03:10.90]We try not to look down
[03:13.52]
[03:15.14]We try not to look down
