Maybe This Time Lyrics

Maybe this time it will happen, maybe this time wait & see*
Who's to blame when words of honour
Are discarded shamefully

Down in the busy streets, rain falls down in sheets
Windswept men are coming home from work
Shoppers drag their bags & youngsters drag their fags
While hidden in the shadow evil lurks

Maybe this time it will happen, maybe this time wait & see
Who's to blame when words of honour
Are discarded shamefully

Down in the busy streets friends & lovers meet
Sit in bars & moan about their day
As beer & banter flows, little do they know
Apocalypse is just a breath away

Laugh & cry, don't ask why, safe inside your cages
Take your cup, drink it up, sleep the sleep of ages
Payback time, for your crime, pave the way to Hades
Flames & noise, for the boys, shrapnel for the ladies

Maybe this time it will happen, maybe this time wait & see
Who's to blame when words of honour
Are discarded shamefully

Down in the busy street people lifted from their feet
As bricks & glass fly outward from the blast
And in a single breath, life turns to death
A future bold becomes a shameful past

Maybe this time it will happen, maybe this time wait & see
Who's to blame when words of honour
Are discarded shamefully
