Oh come on away to the city
A kingdom to behold
Where the bluest skies they float on by
The streets all paved in gold
Where under the smiles fair and pretty
Are teeth so very white
Into the bones of our burdened necks they bite
Baptised in the water
You’re draining the well
You built up your heaven
On the back of hell
Divine is the daughter
The dream that you sell
You built up your heaven
On the back of hell
Breakin' our backs
On breakin' down stones
Raisin' up buildings
Breakin' down bones
Work all the night
And we work all the day
Don’t get a choice man
Don’t get a say
Well there’s a stormcloud stirrin' now
Revolt!
There’s a stormcloud stirrin' now
Revolt!
TEAR IT DOWN!
The filthy streets and the calloused feet
And bloodshot Irish eyes
A floating haven for the craven
Nestled in the skies
Well up and out and away with ya
There’s a fight outside your doors
The shining pride of America
Is a nation up for war
Revolt!
Baptised in the water
You’re draining the well
You built up your heaven
On the back of hell
Divine is the daughter
The dream that you sell
You built up your heaven
On the back of hell
The hybrid face of time and space
And all that’s in between
Dimensions twist and turn amidst
The whims of one foreseen…
Songbird take me home
Home
I am lonely wherever I go
Sanctuary is all that know
And I dream of the sky
Broken clouds drifting by
And I dream of the sky
My utopian lie
And I dream of the sky
Broken clouds drifting by
And I dream of the sky
My utopian lie
I take to the skies
With my only friend
Every angel
Begins at the end
I am lonely wherever I go
I am lonely wherever I go
I am lonely wherever I go
I am lonely wherever I go
