Well we were caught out We were too slow We didn't see the trouble coming Heading this way Straight for us All the terrible things you said were true I'm not sorry, I said "Sorry" I'm not sorry but I will say it again We were caught out We were too slow They were angry, so this is what they did:
They brought ladders They brought petrol Thirty people marched up the hill to our home They climbed ladders They poured petrol They tore the roof up and set the place alight They nailed the doors shut They blocked the windows They got wood from the fence I built last year D.I.Y. done, tools packed away They stood around chicking stones at our house And then the neighbours gathered outside We could hear them laughing at the flames At the thick smoke, at the black air I pulled you closer and I said "We'll be ok" Just don't cough and don'y cry Cause then they'll hear you And they'll know we're still alive If we're quiet, if we keep still When it's done then we can fly away
Well when we came here There were questions We gave answers The wrong ones every time But when they ask you did you know me You better tell them "I know not who you mean" I can't see you, Are you still there? I can't find my hands to reach for you I can't hear you, Can you hear me? My love, it's done, but we were not to blame Not our fault, what happened We were warned, but did we listen? no We were caught out, we were too slow These things fall apart without our help Take strong wings, use them well Grow good from hopeless dust and dirt My brave one, take the pain away Take a pain away and throw it to the flamesTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
