New Tomorrow Lyrics - Legendary Pink Dots

Silent as the final hour heralding a quake, we cut the wire . . . 

We slipped the guard, sprayed "LOVE" across the barricades. 

As searchlights swooped and froze and failed to isolate 

a trace of life outside the gates of New Tomorrow. 

The penalty for deviation's clear to those with ears 

and eyes. We stretch our claws behind closed doors. 

We always have our alibis. Outside we smile with 

lips zipped, eyes fixed forward. We never criticise the 

pure and guiding Light of new Tomorrow. 

But though they burned the history books, they 

cannot kill the ghost that cruises Blindman's 

boulevard and plants a rose . . . who flings his seeds 

of Breakdown Bridge and sees a legend grow of life 

beyond the throes of New Tomorrow. 

And we have watched the sun roll down the 

mountain to a frozen lake. We have heard our laughs 

go on forever deep inside a crystal cave. We 

told them as they plunged the needle, pledging 

our escape from the all-embracing arms of New 

Tomorrow. WE SHALL SEE OUR KINGDOM COME!
