lyrics

Along the river
On the brightest of mornings
To the cathedral
Up to the tower
Where the bells beat time
Where the ghosts keep time
Where my soul wakes now
For the breakout.

Tell me you love me
Tell me you’ll keep me
Safe from the ravaging, scavenging
Hands of the clock.

Tell me a story
Of old-fashioned glory
Keep me awake
With tales of escape
Light up my mind
With poems that blind me
To numbers and hungers
And time.

- Never, never go
Never, never
No!
Never, never go
Where the ghosts keep time
That’s where you’ll meet time
And you cannot beat time -

And when I am tired
When we’ve admired
All of these statues
And plaques to
Our heroes
When you are thinking
That I am sleeping
In fact I’ll be creeping
Back to the tower
Where my soul waits now
For the breakout
For the fire.
