No illusions It's been the same song all the time You've drawn your conclusions We are the past and we've had our last Can plant no seed of hope All there is is what you see Past the point of no return From this draconian reality But we're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town Turned into intrusion It's been the same old song, we are defined There's no confusion The green turns grey and we're dead, deaf and blind Here is our lease of hope All there is is what you see The Clock of Time has put its big cold hands on me But we're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town We're alright on this side of town
