[01:13.798] |
It's a chilly English winter |
[01:15.795] |
And solitude is never easy to maintain |
[01:19.806] |
Except when it rains |
[01:24.288] |
So I hang an empty smile beneath my empty eyes |
[01:27.794] |
And go out for a walk |
[01:31.294] |
The wet morning sun reflects off the paving-stones |
[01:35.039] |
While a little dog barks its head off |
[01:38.794] |
In the distance |
[01:42.800] |
Oh, what a perfect day |
[01:46.793] |
To think about myself |
[01:50.046] |
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor |
[01:54.293] |
What is there to fear from such a regular world? |
[01:57.794] |
Oh, what a perfect day |
[02:01.805] |
To think about myself |
[02:05.039] |
My feet are firmly screwed to the floor |
[02:08.789] |
What is there to fear from such a regular world? |
[02:55.797] |
Passing by a cemetery |
[02:57.301] |
I think of all the little hopes and dreams |
[02:59.797] |
That lie lifeless and unfilled beneath the soil |
[03:06.047] |
I see an old man fingering his perishing flesh |
[03:09.548] |
He tells himself he was a good man and did good things |
[03:13.801] |
Amused and confused by life's little ironies |
[03:17.545] |
He swallows his bottle of distilled damnation |
[03:36.298] |
People turn around with unseeing eyes |
[03:39.556] |
They're looking for something that doesn't exist |
[03:43.051] |
The world you once knew is being eaten up by rust |
[03:46.550] |
No-one has time for the past, but still, in God they trust |
[03:50.294] |
The future is now, but it's all going wrong |
[03:53.795] |
Bodies good for nothing, but it's to nothing they belong |
[03:57.795] |
People say their prayers and some work hard |
[04:01.052] |
If you give them all your money, they'll give you their hearts |
[04:06.550] |
This town ain't going like a ghost town |
[04:11.299] |
It's going like hell.... |
