Purity - New Model Army[00:00:00]
Written by:Justin Sullivan[00:00:01]
The rains move in eastwards in waves of succession[00:00:09]
Drawing lines of grey across the sky[00:00:13]
With history just as close as a hand on the shoulder[00:00:16]
In hunger and impatience we cry[00:00:20]
Battle corruption rages in each corner[00:00:24]
There must be something better something pure[00:00:27]
And the call it is answered from the caves to the cities[00:00:31]
Come the dealers of Salvation on Earth[00:00:34]
We've seen the restless children at the[00:00:53]
Head of the columns[00:00:55]
Come to purify the future with the arrogance of youth[00:00:57]
Nothing is as cruel as the righteousness of innocents[00:01:00]
With automatic weapons and a gospel of the truth[00:01:04]
Revolution for ever succession of the seasons[00:01:07]
Within the blood of nature all raised to rot and die[00:01:15]
This purity is a lie[00:01:22]
Now immaculate conception in sterilised laboratories[00:01:40]
How the vanity goes on[00:01:45]
Or in the message of the preacher with his morals and obsessions[00:01:48]
The wars that we wage upon ourselves[00:01:51]
Purity is a virtue purity is an angel[00:01:55]
Purity is for madmen to make fools of us all[00:01:59]
So forgive yourself my friend[00:02:02]
Will soon be over[00:02:05]
What happened here tonight is nothing at all[00:02:06]
Revolution for ever[00:02:10]
Succession of the seasons[00:02:14]
Within the blood of nature[00:02:17]
All raised to rot and die[00:02:21]
This purity is a lie[00:02:24]
I will always see Brendan at that broken down piano[00:02:43]
His fingers thick and red shaking on the keys[00:02:47]
Battered by the years of alcohol and working[00:02:51]
Still playing with the faith that never leaves[00:02:54]
So sit us down buy us a drink tell us a good story[00:02:57]
Sing us a song with we know true be[00:03:01]
I don't give a d*mn that I never will be worthy[00:03:05]
Fear is the only enemy[00:03:09]
Oh that I still know[00:03:13]
