"Walk Like You" Written by Jim Glennie, Larry Gott, Mark Hunter, Saul Davies and Tim Booth You know more than you think you know This universe is in your eyes Inside the galaxies collide Which parent told you that you're slow My absent dad, my mum's control Schooled me to be a worker drone So this is it, a life on earth We're made of stars, we're made of dirt Unconsciousness, we disconnect Tone deaf to calling We learn to walk like you Talk like you, oo-be-do Think like you, whine like you Love like you in pieces God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can't talk I can't talk You know more than you think you know Your DNA is pulsed by stars Reveal the cogs that wheel the show So this is it, a universe of birth and death Love and neglect, but we forget Dad's off on tour or in a meeting We will not walk like you Talk like you, oo-be-do Fight like you, screw like you Break like you in pieces God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can't talk God knows I know no better Easy to say that I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] Welcome to our coming of age To embrace all that we've become Bored with your stories of pain Shoot yourself with a ricochet You don't know, you don't know You don't know, you don't know You don't know me You don't own, you don't own You don't own, you don't own You don't own me Let's inspire, let's inflame Create art from our pain Find a love that's as deep as it's holy Let's inspire, let's inflame Create gods from our pain Find a love that's as sweet as it's holy Let's inspire, let's inflame Create dreams from our pain Find a love that's as plain as it's holy [Holy, holy, holy] Let's inspire, let's inflame Create song from our shame Find a love that won't fade, love is holy [Love is holy] But I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] I can't talk [I can't talk, I can't talk, I can't talk] | Visit James' Official Website |
