One From The Modern

Mother and Stan don't blame yourself for Rose
She was out there playing in the road
Better to let her know not to forget
All that schooling goes right through their heads

They take back all
And/When you give them loving
Fall you to your knees
Then give back nothing
But looking through love
You know there's something... so real

Father and Son you're in this one so deep
I could always lull myself to sleep
But I will cry to let you always know
All my life I need your time to grow

(Repeat chorus x3)

Emily Chambers would make it pay
Everyone knew she'd turn out that way
She turned her back and she'll be okay
But she's not okay at all

Every night with the radio on
Emily fears that the day won't come
The moon is there to do her harm
She's not all right at all

Don't get arrested
Don't buy a machine gun
You're on the run
And you're not on the scene
You're not so cool
And you're not a jerk
You may be a villain
But no Patty Hearst
You're Emily Chambers
And what's worse
Is a whipping wind
And a box in a hearse
And a trigger in your head
And a pen in your hand
And the pain in the verse
And the flat drying land
And the thin of the air
And a pain that hurts
You're Emily Chambers in the universe

(Repeat first verse)

Every night with the lamplight on
Emily fears that the day has gone
The moon is there to do her harm
She's not all right at all

(Repeat chorus)

Emily Chambers would make it pay
Everyone knew she'd turn out that way...

It's warm outside
But I can hear the snow
Falling on my window
I had to go away
To somewhere deeper down
I know it's my mistake
To take off out of this town
And June becomes July

This road's on fire
And my train's running slow
It rains against my window
I had to get away
To somewhere no-one knows
I know it's my mistake
To take off now in this way
And June becomes July

The air is thin
When you're above the clouds
I see them from my window
It's strange to get away now
To somewhere no-one goes
I know it's my mistake
But I don't even know now
And June becomes July
And June becomes July

You are the one you makes a difference
But I am the one who makes the waves
All down the line this makes us different
So all our dreams may stay awake

You know sometimes things get so strange
And all we do may go astray
Wrapped in your youth these things won't harm you
And they don't hit you like a train

Say... won't you see her
I heard she's waiting at your door
Oh I hope you won't keep near her
I know she's bound to want it all

She's uncommon, she has one face
And her heart beats to your tune
When she speaks, she speaks of only your name
Then she repeats it like a fool

Hey... you can't say you don't want her
You know you let her through your wall
Oh I hope you don't keep near her
I know she's bound to want it all

(Repeat 1st verse)

I am the news and I'll say no more
I am the stranger at your door
I am the the deep beneath the sea
The threat of flood tide rising
I am the banks bearing refugees
Always a cause not solution
A constant fear or a fleeting joy
Your only friend who needs using

I am the news and I'm in your face
And I'll take my profit from your faith
I am the the face beneath the face
The catalyst of explosions
I am the crop bearing crippled genes
I am an inside connection
A constant friend on a changing screen
Your history and direction

Radio, radio
I'll turn you on again
You're the truth
You're a soothe
Be the blues
Be my best friend
Don't give us the truth
I need the news again

I am the news and I'm every spin
I am what is and what's not in
I am the trump card, I'm the ace
I am the news and I'm in your face
I am the ocean's biggest roar
I am the smallest twist of fate
I am the ending of a play
I am the opening curtain

(Repeat second half of second verse)

All the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
All the people nursing shattered bones
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace
So we've gotta fight some more

And all those who are in foreign lands
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who lost their feet or hands
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace boys
We've gotta fight some more

Hey, we don't wanna fight no more
Hey, hey, hey, we don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace boys
We gotta fight some more

And all those just trying to play their part
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who own a human heart
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in what you want
So we must fight some more

And all those who got an axe to grind
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who got their burning lights
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in ever being right
So we must fight some more

(Repeat chorus)

And all the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
And all the people never going home
Don't wanna fight no more
There is profit in the land you own
So we must fight some more

And all those who got a tired face
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who lost without a trace
Don't wanna fight no more
But there is profit in the love of hate
So we must fight some more

(Repeat chorus)

Hey, hey, hey, we don't wanna fight no more...
