At a young and desperate age, like the heroes we once played
We were so courageous, just enough to make it real
Fearless is the child that sees, what his life is meant to be
Like the fighter, he will dance to stay alive, alive
Fearless, nothin's left to hide, fearless on the other side
Ridin' free and fearless on a raging sea
Is the only thing that keeps you alive

Livin' like he's on the run, fearless knows what he's become
He's still courageous, like the hero, he survives, survives
Fearless, nothin's left to hide, fearless on the other side
Ridin' free and fearless on a raging sea
Is the only thing that keeps you alive
Ridin' free and fearless on a raging sea
Is the only thing that keeps you alive
Fearless, nothin's left to hide, fearless on the other side
Fearless, always fearless

Nothings last forever
Of that I'm sure
Now you've made an offer
I'll take some more
Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Will I still survive
The same old scene?
In our lighter moments
precious few
Of that I'm sure
Now you've made an offer
I'll take some more
Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Will I still survive
The same old scene?
In our lighter moments
precious few
It's all that heavy weather
We're going through
When I turn the corner
I can't believe
It's still the same old movie
That's haunting me
Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Trying to revive
The same old scene
Young loving may be
So extreme
Maybe we should try
The same old scene
Nothings last forever
Of that I'm sure
Now you've made an offer
I'll take some more
We're going through
When I turn the corner
I can't believe
It's still the same old movie
That's haunting me
Young loving may be

The same old scene

The same old scene
Nothings last forever

Shhhh!
We are private detectives onward back from a musical pilgrimage
We work under the name of the Fall
Who would suspect this? It is too obvious
Our office is secluded
Those there to suspect would not see the wood for the trees
We were six like dice but we're back to five
Up here in the North there's no wage packet jobs for us, thank Christ
While young married couples
Discuss the poverties of their self-built traps
And the junior clergy demand more cash
We spit in their plate and wait for the ice to melt
I must create a new regime
Or live by another man's
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
I must create a new scheme
Get out of others' hands
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls

Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
I could use some pure criminals
And get my hands on some royalties
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
A problem of this new scheme
Is answering obscene phone calls
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
Gotta stop drifting around
Kill this ugly duckling
We've got the power
And must not misuse it 'cause life is short and full of thought
I use the power
I use the power
And I will forever
End this reign of terror
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
Before the tide subsides
Before the moon falls for the fifth time, before the moon falls
Before the moon falls
Before The Fall swoons
Before The Fall swoons

Stranger, I'll wait for you
Beneath the archway to never
Let's cease our
Constant wailings
For our prayers fall
On deaf ears
Her white skin
Shines through darkness
Taut with pleasure
Taut with pain
And her keeper
Always laughing, always laughing
And, I'll wait forever
For only you
The disappeared ones
And, the pain will last forever
For only you
That's how the dream goes on
Born again
He says
We'll be born again
But, into rats and hell
For a dollar death
But, that can't happen here!
No, no not again
No, no not again
Beneath the archway to never
Let's cease our
Constant wailings
For our prayers fall
On deaf ears
Her white skin
Shines through darkness
Taut with pleasure
Taut with pain
And her keeper
Always laughing, always laughing
And, I'll wait forever
For only you
The disappeared ones
And, the pain will last forever
For only you
That's how the dream goes on
Born again
He says
We'll be born again
But, into rats and hell
For a dollar death
But, that can't happen here!
No, no not again
No, no not again
And, later we'll be talking
Oh, you wonder why you die?
My head is filled with
Fallen statues
Slaughtered children
Fill our eyes
And, the skull is always laughing
Always laughing, always laughing
And I'll wait for ever
For only you
The disappeared ones
And the pain will
Last forever
For only you
The price of freedom
Born again
He says
That we'll be born again
Into rats and hell
For a dollar death
For your twisted mind
And, it will happen here
No, no not again
No, no not again
Oh, you wonder why you die?
My head is filled with
Fallen statues
Slaughtered children
Fill our eyes
And, the skull is always laughing
Always laughing, always laughing
And I'll wait for ever
For only you
The disappeared ones
And the pain will
Last forever
For only you
The price of freedom
Born again
He says
That we'll be born again
Into rats and hell
For a dollar death

No, no not again

Yeah
Mama told me, "Your lady's lookin' for another man"
I never worry, there ain't a need for me to take no stand

'Cause I can make some time

A six foot, hot look, all american man, yeah

Time to end this long hiatus
My wounded heart is on the mend
I'll search for gold in Acapulco
The treasure chest at rainbow's end
Wind, sand and stars will heal the scars
I’m melting down these prison bars
A lonely lightship lost at sea
That’s what my heart will be
My ship of dreams
(Sailing away)
In my ship of dreams
(Sailing away)
In my ship of dreams
Citadels and far pavilions
Midnight sun, savannah stars
Through sapphire seas and sulphur mountains
To the paradise bazaar
Wind, sand and stars will heal the scars
I’m melting down these prison bars
A lonely lightship lost at sea
That’s what my heart will be
My wounded heart is on the mend
I'll search for gold in Acapulco
The treasure chest at rainbow's end
Wind, sand and stars will heal the scars
I’m melting down these prison bars
A lonely lightship lost at sea
That’s what my heart will be
My ship of dreams
(Sailing away)
In my ship of dreams

In the shuffling madness
Of the locomotive breath
Runs the all-time loser
Headlong to his death
Oh, he feels the piston scraping
Steam breaking on his brow
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train it won't stop
Oh no way to slow down
He sees his children jumping off
At the stations one by one
His woman and his best friend
In bed and having fun
Of the locomotive breath
Runs the all-time loser
Headlong to his death
Oh, he feels the piston scraping
Steam breaking on his brow
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train it won't stop
Oh no way to slow down
He sees his children jumping off
At the stations one by one
His woman and his best friend
In bed and having fun
Oh, he's crawling down the corridor
On his hands and knees
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going
No way to slow down
Hey
He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls
Oh, he picks up Gideons bible
Open at page one
I think God he stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
Locomotive Breath
On his hands and knees
Old Charlie stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going
No way to slow down
Hey
He hears the silence howling
Catches angels as they fall
And the all-time winner
Has got him by the balls
Oh, he picks up Gideons bible
Open at page one
I think God he stole the handle
And the train it won't stop going
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
No way to slow down
Locomotive Breath
