Ballad of Bodmin Pill
|
(Heaton/Sullivan)
|
|
Smash glass against the wall
|
Curse the music on the radio that the neighbours play
|
Door slams, she turns her head
|
Watches through the window as he pulls away
|
Funny how your racing brain drives you so mad
|
When all the while you feel su numb
|
Too old to be clean far too young to be broken
|
Like an army we come
|
|
Cut back, left behind
|
I watched you self-destructing
|
Oh so many times
|
Shot down, once again
|
Sitting in a chair crying what am I going to do with my life?
|
Just learn to hide the way that you really feel
|
Never let them know that you're scared
|
But understand that you're not the special only one
|
Watch us now, watch us real close
|
|
Ch: How we all dance with this fire
|
Cos it's all that we know
|
And as the spotlight turns toward us
|
We all try our best to show
|
We are lost we are freaks
|
We are crippled, we are weak
|
We are the heirs, we are the true heirs
|
To all the world
|
|
Let's go build a fire down on the empty beach when the waves are crashing high
|
White heat purify as the sparks fly up into the great black sky
|
Sacrifice these crutches to the crackling flames
|
Stand as silhouettes against the dawn
|
It's far too late to try to sleep now
|
Seems I'm never tired any more
|
|
Ch:
|
I want to dance with this fire
|
Cos it's all that I know . . .
|
|
We are lost we are freaks . . .
|
And we try our best to show . . .
|
I am lost I'm a freak ha ha.
