Maitland Street Lyrics - Modern Artillery - The Living End

I hear the sirens oh no 

Coming to remind me to go 

Silence is golden I know 

Until the silence is known 

And the plans were carried on 

We were the victims all along 

Is it true did the world stop turning 

When the rain came down 

When the rain came down on 

Maitland Street 

Would we drown in the sorrow 

Of another defeat? 

Will we be remembered if we 

Don't get beat? 

Got your head in the clouds 

Your feet on the ground 

Will we be remembered? 

Will we be remembered? 

Or lost in history 

Of Maitland Street 

Looking for an echo 

Searchin' for somewhere to go 

We found a place that we called home 

But it was empty yeah 

Yeah there was nobody there 

And the clouds began to break 

We tried to run but it was too late 

Now it's done and you gotta move on 

'Cause it's never gonna be the same 

Doesn't anybody know? 

What happened all those years ago? 

Doesn't anybody know? 

Is it true did the world stop turning 

When the rain came down
