Lyrics New Model Army

New Model Army

March in September

There was always something holding you back

Some other world that was calling

Maybe in the mountains where you stretched your arms

Without fear of falling

They tried to bring you their love and fear

But you would never receive it

I tried to tell you that you had everything that you need

But you would never believe it

Ch: So you tried to make family

But nothing was given

So you gave them your own blood

For theirs had been stolen

Yeah, you tried to make family

But nothing was given

So you gave them your own blood

And all of it stolen

You took the water from the wishing well

You never saw that you shouldn’t

You tried to break all the bad in the world

You never saw that you couldn’t

You can count up everything that you have

It never stops the craving

Ain’t it always the ones that want to be saved

That do all of the saving
