| Heading for the great escape | |
| Heading for the rave | |
| Heading for the permanent holiday | |
| Heading for the winter trip | |
| Heading for the slide | |
| Heading for the dignified walk away | |
| Heading for the open road | |
| Goodbye to all that | |
| Heading for the automatic overload | |
| Standing in the open boat | |
| Standing in the swing | |
| Waiting for the ringing and the bright light | |
| Waiting to be recognised | |
| Quiet applause will do | |
| They shower you with flowers when they bury you | |
| You're holding on, you're holding on ... | |
| (i) the last of you | |
| Just when i thought i'd seen the last of you | |
| You come here scratchin' at my door | |
| Your pain and anger's in the howling dark | |
| Of every corridor i walk | |
| So tell me more about the love that you rejected | |
| Tell me more about the trust you disrespected | |
| I still don't know, why did you hurt the very one | |
| Why did you hurt the very one that you should have protected? | |
| (ii) fallin' from the moon | |
| Don't ask me why i'm doing this | |
| You wouldn't understand | |
| You're asking the wrong questions | |
| You couldn't understand | |
| A bridge is not a high place | |
| The fifty-second floor | |
| Icarus would know | |
| A mountain isn't far to fall | |
| When you've fallen from the moon | |
| There's murder on the street | |
| I'm ashes on the water now, somewhere far away | |
| I have fallen, fallen from the moon |
