H eading for the great escape
H eading for the rave
H eading for the permanent h oliday
H eading for the winter trip
H eading for the slide
H eading for the dignified w alk away
H eading for the open road
G oodbye to all that
H eading for the automatic o verload
S tanding in the open boat
S tanding in the swing
W aiting for the ringing and the b right light
W aiting to be recognised
Q uiet applause will do
They shower you with flowers when they bury you
U h huh o uh
O h ouh uh oh
Y ou're holding on
A nd you're holding on. ..
And you h old...
J ust when I thought I'd seen the last of you
Y ou come here scratchin' at my d oor
Y our pain and anger's in the howling dark
O f every corridor I w alk
(x2)
S o tell me more about the love that you rejected
T ell me more about the t rust you d isrespected
I still don't know why did you hurt the very one
W hy did you hurt the very one
That you should have protected?
... ... ... ...
D on't ask me why I'm doing this
Y ou wouldn't understand
Y ou're asking the wrong questions
Y ou couldn't understand
A bridge is not a high place
T he fifty-second floor
I carus would know
A mountain isn't far to fall
W hen you've fallen
W hen you've fallen from the m oon
