This was a stormy ending Water sank our boats Shouldn't we, oh, shouldn't we Throw our hopes into the ocean The ocean The warm grey sea Tell me or kick me or hold me or please believe This is their busted future And this is our dream Which one do you believe in, believe in, believe in, believe in Together, together, together, together Never to retreat Mystery and wonder Messy hearts made of thunder Somewhere there's a soldier Sleeping in a field Somewhere there's a mother, a mother, a mother A mother, a mother, a mother Please believe in gentle dreams The sweetness of people Whistling in their sleep The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs The sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs And the sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam The angels in your palm Sing gentle worried songs The sweetness of our dreams Like mountains made of steam

Sisters and Brothers, We have surely lost our way. In strip malls full of cancer, And a pathetic rain. Mother, sweet mother, Please don't discipline your hands. Just kiss me in the morning, In your dirtiest pants. We will find our way. We will find our way. There is beauty in this land, But I don't often see it. There is beauty in this land, But I don't often feel it. People are flowers, Musicians are Cowards! Let's argue in the kitchen, For hours and hours. Tomorrow is a travesty, Tomorrow should be ours. Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! Musicians are Cowards! The soldiers with their specialists, And the pigs with their guns cannot stop, The lost ones and the desparate ones and the driven ones. The soldiers with their cigarettes, And the pigs with their guns cannot stop, The lonesome ones and the desparate ones and the smart ones. So come on friends, To the barricades again. So come on friends, To the barricades again. So come on friends, To the barricades again. So come on friends, To the barricades again. We will find our way, We will find our way.

The community is sick and the community is blind, yeah. And it's colder than Poland and the sun is not shining here; And we're tangled in the shit of each other's ruined affairs; And half of us are faking, and the other half is tired and scared... (Right) Please believe in labour and hope and joy; 'Cause like a little boy, i have destroyed hope and joy; And lately i dream about angels with Molotovs; And nightly they fist me, wrists like tender trucks...

Trod the long road my hidren, Only love rastafari bring surely love Jah bring Trod the hard road my sistren, Will you wait for me near the end? Cause I'll be there. I'll be there. Cause the rain, Cause the rain will fall And the night is cold. A little rest for my body and such. Sitting and thinking. Trying not to think too much. Im smoking, you're drinking. Try your best to call my bluff, you're hearing that I'm leaving. Stay awhile now please don't rush make the most Cause life's with time is not really made up.
