Your Guiding Hand

[Intro]
When it all falls down
When it all falls down
When it all falls down
When it all falls down

[Verse 1]
A rainswept city vista, circa 6 A.M
The type of light they find you in
Since they became too light to touch
It's so hard to take, but they took too much
Those friends of mine went up to join the guiding hand
More gutter dust, sucked in from the shadowlands
Waiting here so patient for absent friends
In a sinking city, circa 6 A.M

[Pre-Chorus]
When it all falls down
Here in my heart, you'll never drown
In the rain of London town
Your guiding hand reaches out

[Chorus]
Coming down
Back to your yard, see who's around
When it all comes falling down
Your guiding hand reaches out
Your guiding hand reachеs out

[Post-Chorus]
Came back claiming your home turf
Like a firеwork falling back to Earth
Back-back to Earth
Like a firework falling back to Earth

[Verse 2]
A rainswept city vista, circa 6 A.M
Your guiding hand's been leading me away again
Through the piss-stained alleyways to the late blocks, teeming
Lockjaw data boys and girls screaming, "Don't go dreaming..."
Long for days that eased in through the trees
With Capris and bad Es and allotments in the breezes swayed
In the low violet light that hunts the dying day
Your guiding hand visits me to say:
Did you wanna see me tonight?
Sat on a sofa, side by side
I was a feeling with its foot in the door
I wanna get high like you've never known me before
I want you to feel like you've never loved me before

[Refrain]
When it all falls down
When it all falls down

[Verse 3]
I'm glad when people fall in love, it's just a culture shock
Rewrote the story of my life for you, then lost the plot
And sometimes I find it hard to be my father's son
Finding paradise at night, where the buses run
(No more cocaine conversations)
People talk at me, but I'm tuned to a different station
To your guiding hand, there's an oath, I swore it
But every time you try to live, they fucking kill you for it

[Chorus]
When it all falls down
When it all falls down
Like a firework falling back to Earth
When it all falls down
Like a firework falling back to Earth
When it all falls down
Back to Earth, back-back to Earth
When it all falls down
Like a firework falling back to Earth
Your guiding hand reaches out
Your guiding hand reaches out
