Consider green lakes And the idocy of clocks Someone shot nostalgia in the back Someone shot our innocence
A broken arrow in a bloody pool The wound in the face Of midnight proposals Someone shot nostalgia in the back Someone shot our innocence
In the shadow of his smile In the shadow of his smile In the shadow of his smile In the shadow of his smile
All our dreams have melted down We are hiding in the bushes From dead men Doing Douglas Fairbanks' stunts
All our stories burnt Our films lost in the rushes We can't paint any pictures As the moon had all our brushes
Extracting wasps from stings in flight Who killed Mr. Moonlight? Who killed Mr. Moonlight In the shadow of his smile Who killed Mr. Moonlight In the shadow of his smile
Walk in silence, Don't walk away, in silence. See the danger, Always danger, Endless talking, Life rebuilding, Don't walk away.
Walk in silence, Don't turn away, in silence. Your confusion, My illusion, Worn like a mask of self-hate, Confronts and then dies. Don't walk away.
People like you find it easy, Naked to see, Walking on air. Hunting by the rivers, Through the streets, Every corner abandoned too soon, Set down with due care. Don't walk away, in silence, Don't walk away.
