Pictures Lyrics - Midnight Oil

I just want to see that clear clear light 

Don't want to be a member of a species that's deceasing 

Keep on making those promises that they aren't keeping 

Oh I was a talking to the people next door 

Said they don't want to die in a nuclear war 

Now we went walking down the old north road 

We got a common cause we got a heavy heavy load 

Watching pictures of the world 

Watching pictures as they pass me by 

Don't stop at that light 

Don't go out at night 

My artificial heart 

Expensive spare parts 

I've been a sailor on the sea I've been a flier in the air 

I've seen a whole lot of bleeding hearts out there 

They don't talk so much I tell you they still care 

They can't go on living like this they can't go on 

Don't sit around in silence you don't need a license 

It's moving in a hurry there's no need to worry 

We're really going to change it the critical mass approaches 

I can almost hear it
