I Love The World (BBC In Concert 5th Nov 1990) (Live) - New Model Army[00:00:01]
Written by:Justin Sullivan/Rob Heaton/Robert Heaton/Sullivan[00:00:03]
The roll of distant thunder breaks[00:00:38]
The afternoon of silence wakes[00:00:41]
They hurry through from[00:00:44]
Petergate as if they know this dance[00:00:45]
In fury blind I drive at night across the moors[00:00:49]
The open roads[00:00:54]
Beneath the freezing starry skies[00:00:56]
Racing in some trance[00:00:59]
These cities are illusions of some triumph over[00:01:02]
Nature's laws[00:01:06]
We've seen the iron carcass rust[00:01:07]
And buildings topple into dust[00:01:10]
And as the waters rise it seems[00:01:13]
We cling to all the rootless things[00:01:16]
The christian lies technology[00:01:19]
While spirits scream and sing[00:01:22]
Oh god I love the world[00:01:24]
I love the world[00:01:26]
I love the world[00:01:28]
I love the world[00:01:30]
I love the world[00:01:31]
I love the world[00:01:33]
I love the world[00:01:34]
I love the world[00:01:35]
I love the world[00:01:37]
I love the world[00:01:38]
I love the world[00:01:40]
I love the world[00:01:41]
I love the world[00:01:43]
Cause I love the world[00:01:46]
Well I never said I was a clever man[00:01:49]
But I know enough to understand[00:01:51]
That the endless leaps and forward plans[00:01:55]
Will someday have to cease[00:01:58]
You blind yourselves with comfort lies like lightning[00:02:01]
Never strikes you twice[00:02:05]
And we laugh at your amazed surprise as[00:02:07]
The ark begins to sink[00:02:10]
This temple that is built so well[00:02:13]
To separate us from ourselves[00:02:16]
Is a power grown beyond control[00:02:19]
A will without a face[00:02:22]
And watching from outside I wish that[00:02:25]
I could wash my hands of this[00:02:28]
But we are locked together here[00:02:31]
This bittersweet embrace[00:02:34]
Oh god I love the world[00:02:36]
I love the world[00:02:38]
I love the world[00:02:40]
I love the world[00:02:41]
I love the world[00:02:43]
I love the world[00:02:44]
I love the world[00:02:46]
I love the world[00:02:47]
I love the world[00:02:49]
I love the world[00:02:50]
I love the world[00:02:51]
I love the world[00:02:53]
I love the world[00:02:54]
I love the world[00:02:56]
I love the world[00:02:57]
I love this world[00:02:59]
And if one day the final fire explodes[00:03:37]
Across the whitened sky[00:03:40]
I know you've said you'd rather[00:03:42]
Die and make it over fast[00:03:44]
With courage from your bravest friends[00:03:48]
Waiting outside for the end[00:03:51]
With no bitterness but an innocence that[00:03:53]
I can't seem to grasp[00:03:57]
I know somehow I will survive this fury just to stay alive[00:04:00]
So drunk with sickness weak with pain[00:04:05]
I can walk the hills one last time[00:04:09]
Scarred and smiling dying slow[00:04:12]
I'll scream to no one left at all[00:04:15]
I told you so[00:04:18]
I told you so[00:04:19]
I told you so[00:04:21]
I love the world[00:04:37]
I love the world[00:04:38]
I love this world[00:04:40]
I love the world[00:04:43]
I love the world[00:04:44]
I told you so[00:04:46]
