We'll hold our ground
'Til it's too tough to bear
We'll go somewhere safe
Or at least go somewhere
The whole damn world
Is mutual ground
And offers no shelter
From the madness around
What we need is a corner
On the edge of a map
And we'll be out of this place
[?] traps
Journeys on tube trains
About to explode
With sick, sick people
All burning their lodes
And the dirt all around us
Gets into our souls
[2:15]
I'm wondering whether
We should carry a knife
[?]
Could lose you a life
So if we stay I don't doubt
We will both end up dead
But until that time comes
We've got our whole lives ahead
The whole damn world
Is mutual ground
[?] no shelter
From [?]
Nothing I've heard
Could make me believe
There will be any kind
Of reprieve
We won't sleep[?]
Until the moon shines from the crack in the ceiling
And we could see the whole city
From the window by the bed
Just [?] a little place
Or we'll go now
Cause you know we've got the whole wide world ahead
Our road in my dreams
Stretches far and wide
It's flanked by peach trees
It's lit by the sun
A dream from my childhood
Has troubled my mind
Now it troubles my days
From time to time
But I can't go as fast
To the country in France
Had to get into Paris
To La Résistance
Both my parents
Were taken away
The gave me a bike
I alone had escaped
Yet the further I traveled
The more I got close
The roads I was on
Became the roads to my hell
