Swords and Knives Lyrics
[Verse 1: Roland Orzabal]
A waking world of innocence
So grave those first born cries
When life begins with needles and pins
It ends with swords and knives
[Verse 2: Roland Orzabal & Tessa Niles]
Oh dangerman, oh dangerman
Your blade fits like a glove
When forged in steel time cannot heal
That blood red bond of love
[Bridge: Roland Orzabal]
In times of trouble you're an open book
With the change in the way you look
And it's sad love's not enough to make things better
[Interlude]
[Verse 3: Roland Orzabal & Tessa Niles]
Turn the tables, we'll burn the fables
Lies beneath the visions and daydreams
Fooled by now, we mystify the past
Like a dream, like it never happened
[Interlude]
[Outro: Roland Orzabal & Tessa Niles, Roland Orzabal]
When life begins with needles and pins
It ends with swords and knives
God save those born to die
