Текст песни The World

The roll of distant thunder breaks

The afternoon of silence wakes

They hurry through from Petergate

As if they know this dance

In fury blind I drive at night

Across the moors, the open roads

Beneath the freezing starry skies

Racing in some trance

These cities are illusions of

Some triumph over Natureïs laws

Weïve seen the iron carcass rust

And buildings topple into dust

And as the waters rise it seems

We cling to all the rootless things

The Christian lies, technology

While spirits scream and sing ...

Oh God I love the world

Well I never said I was a clever man

But I know enough to understand

That the endless leaps and forward plans

Will someday have to cease

You blind yourselves with comfort lies

Like lightning never strikes you twice

And we laugh at your amazed surprise

As the Ark begins to sink

This temple that is built so wellNew Model Army - The World - http://ru.motolyrics.com/new-model-army/the-world-lyrics.html

To seperate us from ourselves

Is a power grown beyond control

A will without a face

And watching from outside I wish

That I could wash my hands of this

But we are locked together here

This bittersweet embrace ...

Oh God I love the world

And if one day the final fire

Explodes across the whitened sky

I know youïre said youïd rather die

And make it overfast

With courage from your bravest friends

Waiting outside for the end

With no bitterness but an innocence

That I canït seem to grasp

I know somehow I will survive

This fury just to stay alive

So drunk with sickness weak with pain

I can walk the hills one last time

Scarred and smiling, dying slow

Iïll scream to no one left at all

I told you so I told you so I told you so ...

Oh God I love the world
