Proposition Lyrics - Notorious - Duran Duran

"Bring back that child," she said 

Spare me the price of freedom 

Cold is my baby's head 

Blown by the wind of reason 

Even the rage behind 

Cries out to see 

We're still standing 

Under the closing edge 

Pay for the crime of feeling 

When all your pride is dead 

You must be scared instead 

A quiet word is my Proposition 

A promise made of a fierce day 

A body bleeds for this coalition 

Without surrender if you stay

"Show me my youth," she cried 

Wasted for desolation 

Hold up the sacrifice 

Pull down your institution 

Resting while anger flies 

Question's the same 

Who's deciding after the clouds have lain 

Shame on your generation 

When all your guilt lies dead 

You must be scared instead 

A quiet word is my Proposition 

A promise made of a fierce day 

A body bleeds for this coalition 

Without surrender if you stay 

When all your pain lies dead 

You must be scared instead
