alot like his sound)

Verse 1:
It's a beautiful world but everyone's insane
Either you swim or either you fade
It's a revolution time we're sleeping at the wheel
Apocalypse child in a nuclear field
We want to change the world but not what holds us back
I want to be for you what I've never had
And all of this time I was just trying to reach you
Through the rain traffic
As you float into space
Your white eyes hide your face
As you float in between - I am with you
If you leave
Fragile to the waves - vicissitude of days
When I am with you I feel a little brave
The madness and the wars the circle that we run
Confusion we import look what we have become
And all of this time I was just trying to reach you
Through the rain traffic
As you float into space
You white eyes hide you face
As you float in between - I die with you
If you leave - as you float
(sorry, don't know the solo, but I think what he's doing is play either the
6th or 5th or both strings open and moving up and down the 4th one, or
something like that)
As you float into space
You white eyes hide you face
As you float in between - I die with you
If you leave - as you flooooooooooat
~
I die with you I die with you I die with you
*As with just about all Bush songs, Nigel's "texture" he adds to song
is all over the place... let me put it this way:
crapload of work + me = ain't gonna happen
...anyway, have fun
