New Land Lyrics - Watch The Fireworks - Emma Pollock

Hold up your glasses, Shout for the masses 

Here we go, And so begins the show 

And not for the first time, We step on the fault line 

And just like that, We watch the fireworks start 

Oh, Sleep, If you can 

You said it was alright, You said it was just 

Another night, But your eyes betray the fight 

And as for this new land, Well it's not what you had planned, right? 

Of love, For this life is stale as tough 

Oh, Sleep, If you can 

Tell me that it isn't true, The things you say he did to you 

For my rage flies, And a man dies 

So this is what I'd like to do, But I don't think that you want me to 

'Cause people are listening, And watching and pointing 

They're looking for windows, And dreaming on porches 

So don't say a word if you want to be here in the morning, In the morning 

So it all ends here, Almost a way 

Out the door, And I'm suddenly fixed to the floor 

Oh, Sleep, If you can
