MIDNIGHT OIL

MIDNIGHT OIL - Safety Chain Blues lyrics

rate me

Hanging on like hell to the safety chain

Lifebuoy crash lands in a vale of tears

All the lovers are in retreat

Out on the edge of the nervous street

So deaf to the call of the wild

Deaf to the first born's whispering plea

Expanding frame the city is in heat

Burning at the edges of the lonely street

But I want to hold your precious head

I will not leave you nor pretend

I'm going to hold you to the end

Hey mama didn't know we'd end up here

The snapshot is all tiles and red walls

Down at the squatter's camps they cannot compete

The shepherd has been bound up by his hands and his feet

Make love make peace make haste it's a slow release

Great changes gonna carry you

Make love make peace make haste it's a slow release

Great changes gonna carry you
