Rage In Eden Lyrics - Ultravox

We sit and watch these lifeless forms 

Stark and petrified 

The high suspense of an empty stage drawing in clutching to its breast 

With murmured words we sigh and focus on the main facade 

Beyond the hard reluctant windows 

News from magazines 

We wrote their names on books we'd borrowed as if to bring us closer still 

And threw it all away to focus on the main facade 

Rage in Eden jigsaw sequence 

But no-one could see the end 

And they were the new gods 

And they shone on high 

Their heavy perfume on the night sucked them down in red tide 

All is through the looking glass focus on the main facade 

Rage in Eden jigsaw sequence 

But no-one could see the end 

Disciples of the new way 

Portraits in the new sand 

See when they run their longest mile holding caps in wet hands 

Eyes upon them try to focus on the main facade 

Rage in Eden jigsaw sequence 

But no-one could see the end
