Anthem For Doomed Youth歌词

[00:02.07]
[00:19.86]Here's a story about the rules of death and glory
[00:23.61]To be learned by heart by all children of men
[00:28.28]It's the hour of the morning on the day after the dawning
[00:33.16]When the sun they said would never set finally set again
[00:37.87]Was it Cromwell or Orwell who first led you to the stairwell
[00:42.81]Which leads only forever to kingdom come
[00:47.12]Rushed alone by guiding hands
[00:49.79]whispers of the promised land
[00:52.27]They wished you luck and handed you a gun
[00:55.78]
[00:58.15]Life could be so handsome
[01:03.19]Life could be so gay
[01:08.26]We're going nowhere
[01:11.29]But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
[01:18.90]
[01:21.13]In the pub that night racking out the lines of shite
[01:25.91]Putting to right all of the world's great wrongs
[01:29.83]Yes we thought that they were brothers
[01:32.49]Then they half-murdered each other
[01:34.91]Then they did a karaoke turn and murdered our best song
[01:40.07]Told the governor's wife about the last night of his life
[01:44.48]She turned away in tears called you a liar
[01:49.03]Where are all the old dreams now?
[01:51.50]The batallion, once so proud
[01:54.31]Lost in some old song and hanging on the old barbedwire
[01:58.88]
[01:59.52]Life could be so handsome
[02:04.76]It's so good to be okay
[02:09.84]We're going nowhere
[02:13.17]But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
[02:20.80]
[02:46.12]Nowhere in the institutions
[02:48.45]Did they teach that revolution
[02:51.21]Was something that could ever come to pass
[02:55.65]Oh we tried one, once before
[02:58.07]Was the king's head on the floor
[03:00.46]And we got booted out the boozer
[03:02.88]Cause someone smashed the glass
[03:05.55]
[03:06.84]Life could be so handsome
[03:11.26]Life could be okay
[03:16.28]We're going nowhere
[03:19.88]But nowhere, nowhere's on our way
[03:27.52]
[03:30.49]Life could be so handsome
[03:35.13]It's all gonna be okay
[03:40.00]We're going nowhere
[03:43.39]Cause nowhere, nowhere's on our way
[03:52.07]Nowhere's on our way
[03:56.26]
