Ballad (2005 Remastered Version) - New Model Army[00:00:00]

When they look back at us[00:00:16]

And they write down their history[00:00:18]

What will they say about our generation[00:00:21]

We're the ones who knew everything[00:00:24]

And still we did nothing[00:00:26]

Harvested everything planted nothing[00:00:29]

Well we live pretty well[00:00:40]

In the wake of the goldrush[00:00:43]

Floating in comfort on waves of our apathy[00:00:45]

Quietly gnawing away at her body[00:00:49]

Until we mortgage the future[00:00:53]

Bury our children[00:00:55]

Storehouses full with the fruits[00:00:57]

We've been given[00:01:00]

We send off the scrag ends[00:01:01]

To suckle the starving[00:01:03]

But still we can't feed[00:01:05]

This strange hunger inside[00:01:07]

Greedy restless and unsatisfied[00:01:10]

I was never much one[00:01:51]

The great big bang theory[00:01:53]

Going out in a blaze of suicidal glory[00:01:55]

Not foolish and brave[00:01:59]

These leaders of ours[00:02:01]

Just stupid and petty unworthy of power[00:02:03]

Just a little leak here and a small error there[00:02:07]

Another square mile poisoned forever[00:02:12]

A series of sad and pathetic little fizzles[00:02:16]

And out go the lights never to return[00:02:20]

The affair it is over the passion is dead[00:02:28]

She stares at us now with ice in her eyes[00:02:33]

But we turn away from these bitter reproaches[00:02:37]

And take up distractions[00:02:42]

To forget what we're doing[00:02:43]

When I stand on these hills[00:03:08]

And I watch her at night[00:03:11]

A thousands square miles[00:03:13]

A million orange lights[00:03:15]

Wounded and scarred she lies silent in pain[00:03:17]

Raped and betrayed in the cold acid rain[00:03:22]

Now I wish now wish now wish now[00:03:25]

We could start over again[00:03:31]

Yes now I wish now wish now[00:03:33]

We could win back her love once again[00:03:41]
