Alarm - Dawn Chorus lyrics
rate meI'm a lonely man walking lonely streets<br />
I'm soaked to the skin with the pain of my unease<br />
From such a strained existence<br />
<br />
The tension in this world keeps me from sleep<br />
I'm hungry and cold<br />
There's a weight hanging over my shoulders<br />
A rain black cloud of doubt<br />
<br />
Have I got enough love <br />
Have I got enough hope?<br />
Enough strength to face the world each day?<br />
I know there's an answer somewhere in this night<br />
I see her each time I look in your eyes<br />
<br />
I'm walking in a wild place<br />
I am banging on the gates<br />
On the other side of the tracks babe<br />
Hoping that someone's gonna hear me pray<br />
<br />
Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town<br />
<br />
Will you say you want me, <br />
Wwill I say I want you?<br />
Will you say you love me <br />
When I'm stripped and forced to stand up naked<br />
And will I still love you<br />
<br />
The goal that I want can't exist without fire<br />
And you fire the thoughts that realise all my dreams<br />
These are a grown man's tears<br />
<br />
I lost all faith, I lost all hope<br />
I started drinking, life became a joke<br />
Something would keep me going. <br />
I didn't know what it was<br />
But I saw it each time I looked in your eyes<br />
<br />
I'm walking in a wild place<br />
I am banging on the gates<br />
On the other side of the tracks babe<br />
Hoping that someone's gonna hear me pray<br />
<br />
Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town<br />
<br />
Oh my god<br />
Why do I feel the doubt<br />
<br />
You give me something I can't live without<br />
Yet from somewhere there comes an emptiness<br />
A feeling that I can't suppress<br />
<br />
Is this the start of the beginning or the point of no return?<br />
<br />
There's an answer there<br />
When I look in your eyes<br />
<br />
I'm walking in a wild place<br />
I am banging on the gates<br />
On the other side of the tracks babe<br />
Where all my doubts are now laid away away away away<br />
I'm walking in a wild place<br />
I am banging on the gates<br />
On the other side of the tracks babe<br />
Where someone answered my prayers<br />
<br />
Oh there's a dawn chorus breaking out all over the town<br />
<br />
(That's too sad)
