The World - New Model Army[00:00:10]

The roll of distant thunder breaks[00:00:36]

The afternoon of silence wakes[00:00:39]

They hurry through from Petergate[00:00:42]

As if they know this dance[00:00:44]

In fury blind I drive at night across the moors[00:00:47]

The open roads beneath the freezing starry skies[00:00:52]

Racing in some trance[00:00:57]

These cities are illusions[00:00:59]

Of some triumph over Nature's laws[00:01:02]

We've seen the iron carcass rust[00:01:05]

And buildings topple into dust[00:01:08]

And as the waters rise[00:01:11]

It seems we cling to all the rootless things[00:01:13]

The Christian lies technology[00:01:17]

While spirits scream and sing[00:01:20]

Oh God I love the world[00:01:22]

I love the world[00:01:24]

I love the world[00:01:26]

I love the world[00:01:27]

I love the world[00:01:29]

I love the world[00:01:30]

I love the world[00:01:32]

I love the world[00:01:33]

I love the world[00:01:35]

I love the world[00:01:36]

I love the world[00:01:37]

I love the world[00:01:39]

I love the world[00:01:40]

I love the world[00:01:42]

I love the world[00:01:43]

I love the world[00:01:45]

Well I never said I was a clever man[00:01:47]

But I know enough to understand[00:01:49]

That the endless leaps and forward plans[00:01:53]

Will someday have to cease[00:01:56]

You blind yourselves with comfort lies[00:01:59]

Like lightning never strikes you twice[00:02:02]

And we laugh at your amazed surprise[00:02:05]

As the Ark begins to sink[00:02:08]

This temple that is built so well[00:02:11]

To separate us from ourselves[00:02:14]

Is a power grown beyond control[00:02:17]

A will without a face[00:02:20]

And watching from outside I wish[00:02:23]

That I could wash my hands of this[00:02:26]

But we are locked together here[00:02:29]

This bittersweet embrace[00:02:32]

Oh God I love the world[00:02:34]

I love the world[00:02:36]

I love the world[00:02:37]

I love the world[00:02:39]

I love the world[00:02:40]

I love the world[00:02:42]

I love the world[00:02:43]

I love the world[00:02:45]

I love the world[00:02:46]

I love the world[00:02:48]

I love the world[00:02:49]

I love the world[00:02:51]

I love the world[00:02:52]

I love the world[00:02:54]

I love the world[00:02:55]

I love the world[00:02:57]

And if one day the final fire explodes[00:03:35]

Across the whitened sky[00:03:38]

I know you've said you'd rather die[00:03:40]

And make it over fast[00:03:43]

With courage from your bravest friends[00:03:45]

Waiting outside for the end[00:03:49]

With no bitterness but an innocence[00:03:51]

That I can't seem to grasp[00:03:55]

I know somehow I will survive[00:03:57]

This fury just to stay alive[00:04:00]

So drunk with sickness weak with pain[00:04:03]

I can walk the hills one last time[00:04:06]

Scarred and smiling dying slow[00:04:09]

I'll scream to no one left at all[00:04:12]

I told you so I told you so I told you so[00:04:15]

I love the world[00:04:34]

I love the world[00:04:36]

I love the world[00:04:37]

I love the world[00:04:39]

I love the world[00:04:40]

I love the world[00:04:42]

I told you so[00:04:43]
