作词 : Sullivan | |
Across the flatlands we came out of nowhere special | |
Like a peasant revolution - makeshift weapons in our hands | |
We crashed the gates so hard we'd never heard that kind of sound before | |
And braced ourselves for victory and the spoils of the land | |
Defences melt away before our frozen blank surprise | |
From the palace now we stare into a million waiting eyes | |
Ch: I've got my trophies on the wall, the heads I've hunted down the hall | |
And I guard my winnings well, carry them with me when I fall | |
Now the daylight hours pass like the people I have lost | |
In the triumph of the hour, in the bloody cause - lust for power | |
Like a vision she dances through the shafts of light | |
Everything I've ever dreamed about focused true and bright | |
And fortune opens up the ground, blackens out the sky | |
I kissed her once, I kissed her twice but I couldn't remember why | |
When I was young they taught me well to always play to win | |
But they never said what happens when you've won the bloody game | |
Ch: I've got my trophies on the wall. . . | |
And all desire is satisfied but still the hunt goes on | |
It's funny how this feeling stays with all the reasons gone | |
We've seen them fat and bloated those who once could hold a flame | |
I've run for home and words gone by but nothing seems the same | |
I can watch the world in secrecy from one side of this glass | |
From the other my reflection and I don't know which is worse | |
The streets are lined with glittering stores and a million fatted calves | |
I can catch myself sometimes these days and all I do is laugh, laugh | |
Ch: I've got my trophies on the wall . . . |
