Statues of Shame Lyrics

Often I wake from a dream
A nightmare that could have been seen by all of us
Fools
A city of squalor now white washed in colour and screams
How we screamed
The girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn't see that far

Can you feel the waves
Crashing on your skin
Washing over
Light becomes all light

I walk through the fields of grey
People of honour cast statues of horror and shame
I come to the end of the line
A girl with a look in her eye one thousand yards
Long
It's the girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn't see that far

Can you feel the waves
Crashing on your skin
Washing over
Light becomes all light

Statues of shame

Watch as they fall away watch as they all come down
Watch as they fall away watch as they all come down

Though they never said goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

I think I've seen her face before
In my dreams I waited for

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye

I think I've seen her face before
In my dreams I waited for
I think I've seen her face before
