Barricade Lyrics - In Our Bedroom After The War - Stars

Trapped on the terraces 

I looked at you and knew 

You were the only thing that mattered 

There was no one for me but you 

In Harmony Street would beat a man 

Just for standing there 

I held my breath as I watched you swing 

And run your fingers through your hair 

Oh, how could anyone not love 

The terrible things you do 

Oh, how could anyone not want 

To try and help you 

In Burmancy, in Burberry 

You held me at the barricade 

The pigs arrived with tear gas 

And I wiped through the mistakes we made

We stalked the streets like animals 

And danced as windows shattered 

For the island, for the thrill of it 

For everything that mattered 

Oh, how could anyone not want 

To rip it all apart 

Oh, how could anyone not love 

Your cold black heart 

I found you on a Saturday 

And that was where I lost you 

You had to finally walk away 

Because of what it cost you 

Years later on, I saw your face 

In line to catch the morning train 

You looked like you'd been suffering 

Like you'd never really loved the plane

Oh, how could anyone 

Not finally diminish 

The thrill of blood comes instantly 

There's only darkness at the finish 

Meet me at the barricade 

I'll be at the barricade 

Meet me at the barricade 

The love died but the hate can't fade 

I'll be at the barricade 

The love died but the hate can't fade
