While I lie awake at night
It's not hard to feel fine
It's so warm inside the shutters
So warm, so dry, I'm quite happy
It's blowing a gale outside
We could be blown away
For all I know
It's wrong to be unhappy
So keep smiling, they might be watching
It's not hard to keep smiling
Why hide, why hide, what are you hiding?
The seas could rise outside
We could be drowned
For all I know
I wont be out tonight
Why not take a friend instead?
I'm safe here on the tallest hill
My house, my house is standing
The flames roar outside
We could be burned alive
For all I know
For all I care
Let it burn

The sun is high
And I don't ever want to come down
I'm feeling blown by the wind
Above the clouds
And I never ever want to come down (never ever ever come down)
Just feel the air on your wings
And say hello
Say hello
Say hello
To the last thing that you'll ever know
And for each feather to fall there's a new star
It's better to fall as a new star
It's better to fall as a new star
I'm going blind
Because the sun is in my eyes
I'm way too high
If I could see your face
Or the miles of our industrial waste
I'd feel alive
Say hello
Say hello
Say hello
To the last thing that you'll ever know
And for each feather to fall there's a new star
It's better to fall as a new star
It's better to fall as a new star
I just can't get enough
I'll give you more than you'll ever know
But I need your blood
I just can't get enough
So let yourself down
Just let yourself go
The past is going fast
The future's gotta grow
So let yourself down
And I'm on fire
With the living and the dead, their hunger never really fed
Don't want to fall...
I need your hand
Just to touch another woman or man
I don't want to die

Last I heard, you'd fallen into yourself
And I knew, there's one way to know what you'd done
Britannia, I heard it on my way to work
The news
I fell down, but then I remembered the world
Forgot your sins, and turned you into a saint
Britannia, I heard it on my way to work
The news
Sing it out!

Waiting for the train
Left out in the rain
Hearing every word
My thoughts began to turn
But I still love you more than him
Waiting for the train
Left out in the rain
Hearing every word
My thoughts began to turn
But I still love you more than
I still love you more
And I know that'll you'll laugh
And you'll saw me in half
But I still love you more than
I still love you more than
I still love you more than him

Sad To Say

Sad to say, it's up to me
To pull up roots, search through leaves
'Cause I can't talk, my skin is on too tight
Round the bones, pulling it right
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Leave me, love, it's too much
Sad to say, you know as well as I
That I'll live, and you'll be fine
In the woods, lost at night
Blank moondays stole our light
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Sad to say, but it's worse to not
Leave me, love, it's too much
Sing it out

Epilogue

My lawyer brought this film to me
We lay down to watch a family lie down
The tightest grins, the hardest eyes sore
All matter of whims, thrown to the wind
Wear a suit
But let it fall from your shoulders
Like a shroud, the epilogue weighs heavily on everyone
The wailing
Brought it home for me
It wasn't loud
But real enough to chill my bones
We peek behind the open doors
The figures slouched in old empty homes
Wear a suit
But let it fall from your shoulders
Like a shroud, the epilogue weighs heavily on everyone
Close the door
Don't let them fall
