Sons Lyrics - Icehouse

We don't know this place 

this wasted stretch of land 

and these steaming horizons 

it's locked in our past 

it's strangely so familiar 

it's a scar on our memory 

no sign of the ancient heroes 

who gave us this one last hour 

it's so still; and so few of us here 

there's no sound here at all 

last light disappears 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

For years we were lost 

we slept; the system stored us 

and sealed in our orders 

we woke up alone 

in this silence and in space 

as if nothing had happened 

no sign of the ancient heroes 

who left us this one long hour 

it's so still, so few of us here 

love, I'm feeling so small, all night 

just waiting here 

we're the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

ohohohhh 

[Instrumental Break] 

it's so still, there's so few of us here 

now, I'm feeling so small, all night 

just waiting here 

with the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the ones left to stay 

the Sons of decay 

the Sons of decay
