In this strange world we have to live in
Protected by some, taken granted by all Time honoured thoughts end disapproving With all dominions ever ready to fall You won't beat the pack, that's no revelation Come snapping their jaws right on your heels Making your way through all this confusion The harder you try, the less it reveals I know what happens The moment you turn out your light And I know what happens It happens to me every night You start to breakdown, breakdown You're going to crucify yourself, you're lost When you get pushed 'round, pushed 'round Another refugee to bear the cross Stand up, fight back Now every course, blighted by answers Acutely profane, no help in this brawl And from the mouths that never felt hunger Comes no deliverance, just a timely withdrawal What of your thoughts not yet discovered? Along with the fears, they both play their part You'll work it out then run for cover The truth will arrive like a bolt through your heart I know what happens The moment you turn out your light And I know what happens It happens to me every night You start to breakdown, breakdown You're going to crucify yourself, you're lost When you get pushed 'round, pushed 'round Another refugee to bear the cross Breakdown, breakdown You're going to crucify yourself, you're lost When you get pushed 'round, pushed 'round Another refugee to bear the cross |

Don't invite the vicious companions
Though they're always at your side Only waiting to take you a ride Feel the creature rise inside you With misguided ill intent Look around, it's your only defence On and on the story goes Where it leads to we all know What you give is what you get What you give See the hungry cry for the children Watch the greedy call for more And the self-ordained proceed to shut the door When the needy run from the table For they know there's nothing there Hoping one day, will somebody care? On and on the story goes Where it leads to we all know What you give is what you get What you give is what you get We've got to be good, got to be strong The final approach is taking too long Too late in the day, when everything's gone Now the villain, he may prosper And the thief might do as well With amusement, their crimes they dispel The promises they've broken And the hearts they have betrayed End to end they are carefully laid On and on the story goes Where it leads to we all know What you give is what you get What you give is what you get On and on the story goes Where it leads to we all know What you give is what you get What you give is what you get |

A sensitive time approaches just before dawn
That carries them further to nowhere The fields will be gorged upon the sacrifice made Despite all their efforts to take care There's no talk about anyone Lying out in the rain They're quite certain to carry on Though it's clearly insane So please don't praise Those mindless games With reckless claims Of glory and fame Talons of steel will seek them out on the day Intent upon venting it's fury Onward they move and with complete disregard Of danger while doing their duty Still no talk about anyone Lying wounded in pain Heart stops beating, is this the one To carry somebody's name? So please don't praise Those mindless games With reckless claims Of glory and fame Mighty and strong So very young There they will stay So far away A sensitive time approaches just before dawn That carries them further to nowhere The fields will be gorged upon the sacrifice made Despite all their efforts to take care Still no talk about anyone Lying wounded in pain Heart stops beating, is this the one To carry somebody's name? So please don't praise Those mindless games With reckless claims Of glory and fame Mighty and strong So very young There they will stay So far away |

The wheels of fortune
Have snapped your fragile thread One night of passion Upset your cultured head But it's okay, it's just the fashion You walk the high roads Look down upon yourself Your eyes concealing Your heart cries out for help But it's okay, it's just a feeling Someone Somewhere Is taking note how you care Hold on Your cold tradition Surrounds you like a wall Too much to carry Celestial paramour You run down Persecution Alley Your expectations The best you've ever had The thought of giving Is that so really bad? That's just the way, it's part of living Someone Somewhere Is taking note how you care Someone Somewhere Is taking note how you care Hold on |

Too late to be tender
Far too many fall along the way Sad case, the pretender Hopes and dreams that vanish day by day Building the illusion Answers from the wings that steal the show Failing in conclusion Forgets the lines, forgets which way to go Morning comes 'round too soon When you're staring back at the moon Are you daring or acting the fool Wishing they'd never been born Come, all you young and precious souls Your legacy waits, come on, take a hold Come all, you young and precious souls Take on the mistakes unchecked or resolved And through this madness find you've been bought and sold Too late to be tender Far too many fall along the way Sad case, the pretender Hopes and dreams that vanish day by day Building the illusion Answers from the wings that steal the show Failing in conclusion Forgets the lines, forgets which way to go Morning comes 'round too soon When you're staring back at the moon Are you daring or acting the fool Wishing they'd never been born Come, all you young and precious souls Your legacy waits, come on, take a hold Come all, you young and precious souls Take on the mistakes unchecked or resolved And through this madness find you've been bought and sold Morning comes 'round too soon When you're staring back at the moon Are you daring or acting the fool Wishing they'd never been born Come, all you young and precious souls Your legacy waits, come on, take a hold Come all, you young and precious souls Take on the mistakes unchecked or resolved Come, all you young and precious souls Your legacy waits, come on, take a hold Come all, you young and precious souls Take on the mistakes unchecked or resolved Come, all you young and precious souls |

Innocence is traded on the road to paradise
When ambition starts to raise its ugly head Prizes won't be given for the last ones in the line And that's something that we all appear to dread Listen to the ravings of a disillusioned man When the rainy days collect to do their worst Full of neat surprises is their sympathetic plan They will cut you up and sell you till it hurts We're all spinning on the roundabout We're all spinning on the roundabout We keep spinning on the roundabout I don't wish to fight Just to prove that I'm right I don't want the world upside down I don't wish to fight Just to prove that I'm right I just need the world spinning around I don't wish to fight Just to prove that I'm right I just need the world spinning around We're all spinning on the roundabout We're all spinning on the roundabout We keep spinning on the roundabout Forever spinning on the roundabout |
