Lyrics

[00:55.16] Born from a soldier's arms
[00:57.11] But our spirit keeps a-moving on
[00:59.74] One metre at a time we fall
[01:03.11] It's a bloody hill in a broken war
[01:05.68] We've been singing like a lunatic
[01:08.61] Knee-deep in our Milk & Sticks
[01:11.30] Just a kid with a broken arm
[01:13.61] A slingshot and a hail of harm
[01:17.61] Ooh I'm hungry for that feeling honey
[01:21.43] Cos it's moving faster than the speed of sound
[01:26.11] I left you a lizard by the lake my lover
[01:30.30] It was so profound
[01:36.42] While we found
[01:42.49] While we found
[01:46.92] Torn like beaten man,
[01:48.99] It's another dog in a foreign land
[01:52.30] And keep on carrying a broken stone
[01:54.86] New tricks and a buried bone
[01:57.49]
[01:58.93] Cut off and cultivated
[02:03.05] I promise you when the time does come
[02:05.51] We'll be down river with my loaded gun
[02:11.59] Ooh I'm hungry for that feeling honey
[02:15.52] Cos it's moving faster than the speed of sound
[02:19.96] I left you a lizard by the lake my lover
[02:24.33] It was so profound
[02:30.52] While we found
[02:36.52] While we found
[02:40.27] While we found
[02:43.96] While we found
[03:20.54] Just like the rest,
[03:23.03] You'll be coming back, you'll be looking for paradise
[03:31.68] For the silver line
[03:35.24] That separates your body from your mind
[03:43.99] What a mess we're in
[03:50.17] There's a monster in my head
[03:52.86] There's an animal screaming down upon my neck
[03:55.61] Oh no you better get up my friend
[04:02.49] There's a monster in my bed
[04:04.93] There's an animal screaming down upon my neck
[04:07.80] Oh no you better get up my friend
[04:14.74] What a mess we're in
[04:19.93] Oh no you better get up my friend
[04:22.99] Oh no you better get up my friend
[04:29.93] Oh you know you better run my friend
