Lyrics New Model Army

New Model Army

Peace Is Only

I'm always restless like bubbling water

As all of Nature explodes out of the Earth

You only get a moment in the eye of the storm

You can catch your breath before stumbling on

I can feel the air, I can feel my pulse

And everything burning up on everything else

And where the grass grows through the concrete

It shows me where to follow, it shows a path to follow

I chose this way to follow

On the edge of something, there were you and I

Turning wild circles on a fairground ride

I couldn't hear what you were trying to say

I was falling in love but you were falling away

We arced into the city and back into the night

And now I don't know which is earth and which is the sky

Electricity crackles from pole to pole

From cradle to grave, from soul to soul

And where the grass grows through the concrete

It shows me where to follow, it shows a path to follow

I chose this way to follow

Peace is only for the dead and the dying
