lyrics

Above the Wall
the crows are swooping down around Jerusalem
above the western wall nothing's lost
if you want to be released make no image or belief
the road is insane not the same old thrill of just bombing away
all my pictures lost their frames and my friends forgot their names
but my donkey still gets mad at me every time it rains
so fall all in one in every piece the crystals in the sugar cube
the world talking sweet it opens up and swallows you
the man in his hologram waving goodbye so long hello come along
to all his extended family
as I turn me off your screen remotely
baby I still feel someone somehow watching
my empty puppet body endless moon walking
to the old spirit spring to be drinking I'm pretty sure we're just drowning
so prove to me your intention give the electricity
it's oh so holy direction
cuz I see me in your eyes
in this mass hallucination going on tonight
oooohoooh ooooh ooh oh
shoot to kill at every border
we're just following orders
and I don't know anyone not on the run
everywhere I look I see the chosen one's
I'm just your other man, I'm just your other hand
I'm just one to turn and walk away
from the Promised Land
Look through the keyhole
her skin so soft and bare
first we were standing in that window
now we're twirling through the air
and as we disappear I can still hear us in the distance
every dog should have his favourite chair
the money is behind your ears
oooohoooh ooooh ooh oh
shoot to kill at every border
we're just following orders
and I don't know anyone not on the run
everywhere I look I see the chosen one's
I'm just your other man, I'm just your other hand
I'm just one to turn and walk away
from the Promised Land
the crows are swooping down around Jerusalem
above the western wall nothing's lost
