A red letter day for our nowhere industrial town. A minister's heading this way - he's closing us down. But what of my daughter - and what of my son. Just how will they live when the factory's gone?.
All I hear are peace talks and battle cries.. . Everyone's losing - nobody's winning,. So run for your lives when the shrapnel's spinning.. . Pictures of the crippled - wounded on the frontline.
Sorry it has been so long since you received my last transmission,. Meanwhile I've studied them - learned about their strange condition.. Now I think I understand why they live in such confusion,.
Just what nobody wanted, I'm just what nobody wanted.. . I think that life has got it in for me,. Can you please tell me who's to blame?. For all the bills upon my mat -.
As the daylight starts to fade -. Twisting shadows all around.. Dead soldiers on parade -. The ghosts of Porton Down.. . Hidden from the public eye, "A cause for regret".
Life's really a chocolate box -. some do without - others have plenty.. It sticks in my throat - my stomach's in knots,. while your box is so full - mine's perpetually empty..
The devil's circus came to town - we watched the freaks arrive en masse. When they paraded through our streets, we turned a blind eye as they passed. Safe in the comfort of our homes we all forget the need to fear.
A girl read my runes in the warm dressing room,. It was then that I started to think. There has to be something really worth hunting -. I reach for another strong drink..
Silently gazing from the window -. My mind detached from space and time.. There is a secret only I know -. A place where the city lights don't shine..
2 A.M. a southbound junction - innocence takes flight. Common sense has lost all function - stranded in the night.. The albatross has flown the nest - he's breaking family ties.
I'm twenty six years old - please tell me what have I got. A monopoly on misery - I guess that's my lot. Ten years of eating bullshit leaves it's taste in your mouth.
Oh Oh Oh Oh. Where were you when I needed you. Well you could not be found. What can I do, oh I believed in you. . You're running me around. Well you can take it as a warning.
