Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken

But You see it's not me,
It s not my family
In your head,in your
Head they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head,
In your head they are cryin'
In your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie

Another mother's breakin'
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It's the same old theme since 1916
In your head,
In your head they're still fightin'
With their tanks and their bombs and their bombs
and their guns
In your head they are dying

In your head, in your head
Zombie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie

Child is, slowly, taken.

Silenced by death in the grave
W B Yeats couldn't save
Why did you stand there
'Where you sickened in time
But I know by now
Why did you sit here?
In the grave

W.B. Yeats "Second"

Why should I blame her
That she filled my days
With misery or that she would of late
Have taught to ignorant men violent ways
Or hurled the little street upon the great
Had they but courage
Equals to desire

Sad that Maud Gonne Couldn't stay
But she had Mac Bride anyway
And you sit here with me
On the isle Inisfree

And you writing down everything
But i know by now
Why did you sit here
In the grave...

Why should I blame her
Had they but courage equals to desire

I'll try to be nice
Be nice if I can
I will try to be nice
And please my man

I'll try to let on
That it's a perfect day
And I'll try to pretend
She's going away

I'll try to let on
She never persisted
I'll try to let on
She never was twisted

I'll try to pretend
She doesn't exist
And I'll try to let on
That you never kissed her
Kissed her x 7
You don't see things like I do x 2

Ya-a Ya-a

I don't believe
That she has the audacity
I don't believe the
Woman without pride x 5

You don't see things like I do
You don't see things
Like I do

I'll try to be nice
Be nice if I can
I will try to be nice
And please my man

I'll try to let on
That it's a perfect day
And I'll try to pretend
She's going away

I'll try to let on
She never persisted
I'll try to let on
She never was twisted

I'll try to pretend
She doesn't exist
And I'll try to let on
That you never kissed her
Kissed her x 7
You don't see things like I do x 2

Ya-a Ya-a

I don't believe
That she has the audacity
I don't believe the
Woman without pride x 5

You don't see things like I do
You don't see things
Like I do

Will you remember the dress I wore? Will you remember my face?
Will you remember the lipstick I wore? This world is a wonderful place.
Will you remember the black limousine? Will you remember champagne?
Will you remember the things that we've seen? I will return here again.
Will you remember the flowers in my hand? Will you remember my hair?
Will you remember the future we planned? The world is not waiting out there.
I won't remember the dress I wore. I won't remember champagne.
I won't remember the things that we swore. I will just love you in vain.
Will you remember? Will you recall? Will you remember

Will you remember the dresse I wore?
Will you remember my face?
Will you remember the lipstick I wore?
This world is a wonderful place.

Will you remember the black limousine?
Will you remember champagne?
Will you remember the things that we've seen?
I will return here again.

Will you remember the flowers in my hand?
Will you remember my hair?

The world is not waiting out there.

I won't remember the dress I wore.
I won't remember champagne.
I won't remember the things that we swore.
I will just love you in vain.

Will you recall?

Now it's easy for to see
Why people's life are so lonely
And you never understood
You never really could, you were wrong

What you were, what you were
I couldn't say
'Cause you left me here behind
A stupid state of mind, and I'm lonely

Yeah, you left me here behind
A stupid state of mind, and you're gone

Cos you left me here behind
A stupid state of mind, and you're gone

What you were, what you were
I couldn't say
It took something hard like this
Mistaken to resist, and I'm lonely

Who will save the warchild baby
Who controls the key?
The web we weave is thick and sorbid
Fine by me
At times of war we're all losers
There's no victory
We shoot and kill and kill your lover
Fine by me
Warchild, victim of political pride
Plant the seed, territorial greed
Mind the warchild, we should mind the warchild
I spent last winter in New York and came upon a man
He was sleeping on the streets and homeless
He said "I fought in Vietnam"
Beneath his shirt he wore his mark, he bore the mark of pride
A two inch deep incision, carved into his side
Warchild, victim of political pride
Plant the seed, territorial greed

Who will save the warchild baby
Who controls the key?

Sittin' in an armchair
With my head between my hands
I wouldn't have to feel like this
If you'd only understand
Too many misunderstandings
Causing such delay
And if it doesn't work like this
Well, I'll try another way

Oh, if this is the way you wanted it
Oh, if this is the way you wanted it
Oh, I didn't understand
Oh, I didn't understand

You know that all I wanted was
To be there by your side
And if you didn't want it
Well, you shouldn't have denied
You knew that you were someone special
Right form the start
But if you treat me badly
We'd be better off apart

Your skin is white, your eyes are blue, this is the day

But the wind might change, I will still remain
I will always be there for you

Those thought, they circle in my mind, this is the day
The demons I can't leave behind. this is the day

Don't be insecure. I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe

Par forth the grace into my mind, this is the day
Par forth the grace, thou art devine, this is the day

Don't be insecure, I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe

But the wind might change, I will still remain
I will still be here

But the wind might change, I will still remain
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you, faith will save you
Faith will save you, stay safe

Oh, don't listen to what they say
Make up your mind, walk away
Oh, don't even give them the time of day
They put you wrong
Turn away
So why did they all just walk away
There was something wrong
Didn't want to stay
Oh, why did they listen to someone else?
I did something wrong, something so ??
They all got that attitude
That all got that attitude...
Don't listen to what they say
Make up your mind, walk away
Oh, it won't ever happen again
They've all gone wrong, gone insane
That's why they all just walked away
There was nothing wrong
Didn't want to stay
That's why they listened to someone else
I did nothing wrong, nothing ???
That's why...
That's why....

Seems like yesterday we were 16
We were the rebels of the rebel scene
We wore Doc Martens in the sun
Drinking vintage cider having fun
Drinking vintage cider having fun
It wasn't often that we fought at all
It wasn't often...
We wore Doc Martens in the sun
Paint our toenails black and let our hair grow
What I am now is what I was then
I am not more acceptable that then
I an not more acceptable than then
It wasn't often that we fought at all
It wasn't often...
Seems like yesterday we were 16

When
When will the icicle melt,
And when
When will the picture show and
I should not have read the paper today
Cause a child, child he was taken away

There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother who cried
And she still hold him in her arms sometime
Cause nine months is too long

How could you hurt a child
Now does this make you satisfied
I don't know what's happening to people today
When a child, he was taken away

There's a place for the baby that died
There's a time for the mother who cried
And she will hold him in her arms sometime
Cause nine months is too long

Well I feel so sorry for you
You'll always be the same
'cos you're sad, you're sad
And I think you're very selfish

And you play a vicious game
'cos you're bad, you're bad
And you'll end up very lonely
And you may end up in pain
'cos you're mad, you're mad

I think you're awful
I think you're horrible
A waste of space (x2)

It's your bad behavior
But you never see

Such a shame, such a shame
You'll always be the same
I'm sickened for the mother
Who endured your pain


Such a shame, such a shame
You'll always be the same
I'm sickened for the mother
Who endured your pain

Arrogance, ignorance (x3)

Ooooo

I should think you're very sad
It's your bad behavior

I should think you're very thankless
For the things you never had
It's your bad behavior

Still can't recognize the way I feel
Nothing of what you said to me was real
And you still can't find the strength to apologize
You just go on laughing and telling everyone lies

'Cos
(You wanted it all, wanted it all, you wanted it all)
No, and
(There's nothin' at all, there's nothin' at all, there's nothin' at all)

Maybe if you could see beyond your nose
Nothing of what had happened surely shows
but your ego excelled and then your attitude
And you went on laughing and shoutin
It's all too shrewd

'Cos
(You wanted it all, wanted it all, you wanted it all)
No, and
(There's nothin' at all, there's nothin' at all, there's nothin' at all)

Sorry son, this is what I've done
This is what I've done
It was a long sad supper without you
I had to be cruel to be kind
We have to leave the past behind
La la la
And isn't it strange how people can change
And isn't it weird how people I feared
They all seem worthless now

I will ride on my bicycle, I ride thinking of you
As I'm riding on my tricycle, I ride

I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze
And I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze

Sorry son, this is what I've done
This is what I've done
It was a long sad supper without you
Please don't hold me responsible
I tried and tried
It wasn't the same without my brain
It wasn't a game, it wasn't a game
Oh not now

I will ride on my bicycle, I ride thinking of you
As I'm riding on my tricycle, I ride

I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze
I see the sun in the trees, and I feel the psychedelic breeze

La la la

Sorry son
Oh I am so sorry son

Sorry son, this is what I've done
This is what I've done
It was a long sad supper without you
I had to be cruel to be kind
We have to leave the past behind
La la la
And isn't it strange how people can change
And isn't it weird how people I feared
They all seem worthless now

I will ride on my bicycle,
I ride thinking of you
As I'm riding on my tricycle,

And I see the sun in the trees,

Here is a story
of hope and of glory.
He's eighteen years old
and well I fell in love.
But after that,
where have you gone, from me?
The one that I loved endlessly.

We used to have a life,
but now it's all gone.

Mystify...

Does it have to be so cold in Ireland?
Does it have to be so cold in Ireland, for me?

Are they ready for me?

And I cried so hard the
Ridiculous thoughts (ahah how)
I feel alright alright alright alright
Ahahahahahah
You should have lied
But I cried so hard the
Ridiculous thoughts (ahah how)
We should have lied, a lied a lied a lied

But you're gonna have to hold on
You're gonna have to hold on 8+
hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on
Well you're gonna have to hold on
You're gonna have to hold on, to me

Nothing to say, nothing to do
Nowhere to go and I can't get over being with you
I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do
I don't know what you want, is there anything that I can do?

'Cause if you were somewhere else instead
If you were with someone else instead
If you were...

The look on your face, that tells us come here
A reason to be escaping from reality
I'm frightened with fear indefinitely
A reason to be escaping from reality

'Cause if you were somewhere else instead
If you were in someone else's hay
If you were...

Na na naa, na na naa
Naa na na naa, naa na na naa

Nothing to say, nothing to do
Nowhere to go and I can't get over being with you
I don't know what to say, I don't know what to do
I don't know what you want, is there anything that I can do ?

'Cause if you were somewhere else instead
If you were in someone else's bed
If you were...

Na na naa, naa na na naa
Naa na na naa

Let me take you
By the hand
Away from here
To another land
Oh this land in which we live
Where people love and are meant to forgive
And you always prove me wrong
'Cos you're always putting me down

I can't take this anymore
I decided to leave
Walked throught the door
Oh, and why do you think I go
Because you know it can never be so
And you always prove me wrong
'Cos you're always putting me down

La, la, la...

Let me take you by the hand
Away from here
to another land
Oh this land in which we live
Where people love and are meant to forgive
And you always prove me wrong
'cause you're always putting me down

I can't take this anymore
I decided to leave
Walked out throught the door
Oh, and why do you think I go
Because you know it can never be so
And you always prove me wrong
'cause you're always putting me down

So let me take you by the hand
Away from here
to another land
Oh, this land in which we live
Where people love and are meant to forgive
And you always prove me wrong
'cause you're always putting me down

that you taught me
What of all the things

What of all your prophetic preaching

Maybe we should burn the housedown
Have ourselves another fight
Leave the cobwebs in the closet
'Cos tearing them out

Pretty eyes
Not a cloud in my day
Not a cloud in my way

Angel eyes, no disguise
No pretension is here
no pretension, no fear

Don't leave me calling
Don't leave me falling

Stay a while, stay a while
I will tell you my mind
I will tell you my mind

I would give everything, just to take all your pain
Just to take all your pain

Don't leave calling
Don't leave me falling
