We Came Through - Scott Walker[00:00:00]

We came through[00:00:06]

We came riding through like warriors from afar[00:00:08]

Our black horses danced upon[00:00:12]

The graves of yesterday's desires[00:00:13]

Haunted by our visions framed in fire[00:00:16]

I greet you for you still believe[00:00:22]

In what's behind a door[00:00:24]

You've seen the children freeze upon their knees[00:00:27]

And praying to the wind[00:00:29]

Descend their grey madonnas back again[00:00:31]

Fire the guns and salute the men[00:00:37]

Who died for freedom's sake[00:00:40]

And we'll weep tonight but we won't lie awake[00:00:43]

Gazing up at statues dressed in stars[00:00:47]

We won't dream for they don't come true for us[00:00:50]

Not anymore[00:00:54]

They've run afar to hide in caves[00:00:56]

With haggard burning eyes[00:00:58]

Their icy voices tear our hearts like knives[00:01:00]

We came through[00:01:09]

Like the Gothic monsters perched on Notre Dame[00:01:11]

We observe the naked souls of gutters pouring forth mankind[00:01:15]

Smothered in an avalanche of time[00:01:19]

And we're giants as we watch our kings[00:01:25]

And countries raise their shields[00:01:28]

And Guevara dies encased in their ideals[00:01:31]

And as Luther King's predictions fade from view[00:01:35]

We came through[00:01:40]

We came through[00:01:44]

We came through[00:01:48]
