Statues of Shame Lyrics[Verse 1]
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
And how we screamed
[Pre-Chorus]
The girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn't see that far
[Chorus]
Can you feel the waves crashing on your skin?
Washing over
Light becomes all light
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn't see that far
[Chorus]
Can you feel the waves crashing on your skin?
Washing over
Light becomes all light
[Bridge]
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
