From father to son The blood runs thin See faces frozen still Against the wind The seam is split The coal face cracked The lines are long There's no going back Through hands of steel And heart of stone Our labour day Has come and gone Yeah you leave me holding on In Red Hill Town See lights go down, I'm... Hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to The glass is cut The bottle run dry Our love runs cold In the caverns of the night We're wounded by fear Injured in doubt I can lose myself You I can't live without Yeah you keep me holding on In Red Hill Town See the lights go down on I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting Hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to Hold on to We'll scorch the earth Set fire to the sky We stoop so low to reach so high A link is lost The chain undone We wait all day For night to come And it comes Like a hunter child I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm still waiting I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to Love...slowly stripped away Love...has seen its better day Hanging on The lights go out on Red Hill The lights go down on Red Hill Lights go down on Red Hill town The lights go down on Red HillRed Light
I talk to you You walk away You're still on the down beat You say you don't want my help But you get hurt, scared If your running from yourself I give you my love I give you my love Give you my love Still you walk away It's your own late show As you jump to the street below But where can you go To leave yourself behind Alone in the spotlight Of this, your own tragedy I give you my love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love, love... In the heart in the heart In the heart of the city Heart in the heart in The heart of the city Oh, love... I pour my love out for you And I'll bring you through See your not alone I give you my love, give you my love Give you my love, give you my love Give you my love, give you my love Give you my love, give you my love Give you my love, love, love Love, love, love, love, love...The Refugee
Woah, woah... She's the refugee. I see your face I see you staring back at me Woah, woah...

Her papa go to war He gonna fight But he don't know what for Woah, woah...

It's falling it's falling And outside the buildings Are tumbling down And inside a child on the ground Says he'd do it again And what am I to do What in the world am I to say There's nothing else to do He says he'll change the world someday I rejoice This morning I fell out of bed When I woke up to what he has said Everything's crazy But I'm too lazy to lie And what am I to do Just tell me what am I supposed to say I'll can't change the world But I can change the world in me If I rejoice Rejoice... And what am I to do Just tell me what am I supposed to say I can't change the world But I can change the world in me If I rejoice I don't know what to change Rejoice...A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel
From where I stand I can see thrugh you From where you're sitting, pretty one I know it got to you I see the stars in your eyes You want the truth, but you need the lies Like Judy Garland, like Valentino You give your life for rock n' roll Uh huh Stand, we're on a landslide of love You got everything you want But what you need you give away For primitive love And a ride on the mistery train A primitive love A room at the Heart... The Heartbreak Hotel A room at the Heartbreak Heartbreak Hotel A room at the Heartbreak Heartbreak Hotel You say it's love, it's not the money You let them suck your life out like honey Turning tricks, you're on the street Selling your kisses so bittersweet (Gospel voices) A primitive love A and a ride on the mistery train A primitive love A room at the Heart The Heartbreak Hotel A room at the Heartbreak, the Heartbreak, The Heartbreak Hotel, Hotel [Repeat until end]Running To Stand Still
And so she woke up Woke up from where she was Lying still Said I gotta do something About where we're going Step on a steam train Step out of the driving rain, maybe Run from the darkness in the night Singing ha, ah la la la de day Ah la la la de day Ah la la de day Sweet the sin Bitter taste in my mouth I see seven towers But I only see one way out You got to cry without weeping Talk without speaking Scream without raising your voice You know I took the poison From the poison stream Then I floated out of here Singing...ha la la la de day Ha la la la de day Ha la la de day She runs through the streets With her eyes painted red Under black belly of cloud in the rain In through a doorway she brings me White gold and pearls stolen from the sea She is raging She is raging And the storm blows up in her eyes She will... Suffer the needle chill She's running to stand... Still.
