Abney Park - Life in an Instant lyrics
[Abney Park - Life in an Instant lyrics]
Darkness, the streets of London
He searched for souls
Alone he'd never achieve his lofty goals
Peasants and beggars he found
To aid his plans train them & give them the
Strength to share his lands
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island lost & alone he forged for them
Away from the city where they did fend
Beauty he gavе to the place: green trees
White sand
Thе souls in creation had held no hand
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
Naked he stood as the people
Did wage their war
This island was the treasure
That they fought for
Love & honor was fought with no valor
The dead were lying slain at every door
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island of my own, like old Prospero built
For my life I atone & I'm armed to the hilt
Darkness, the streets of London
He searched for souls
Alone he'd never achieve his lofty goals
Peasants and beggars he found
To aid his plans train them & give them the
Strength to share his lands
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island of my own, like old Prospero built
For my life I atone & I'm armed to the hilt
Wecome to the park
He searched for souls
Alone he'd never achieve his lofty goals
Peasants and beggars he found
To aid his plans train them & give them the
Strength to share his lands
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island lost & alone he forged for them
Away from the city where they did fend
Beauty he gavе to the place: green trees
White sand
Thе souls in creation had held no hand
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
Naked he stood as the people
Did wage their war
This island was the treasure
That they fought for
Love & honor was fought with no valor
The dead were lying slain at every door
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island of my own, like old Prospero built
For my life I atone & I'm armed to the hilt
Darkness, the streets of London
He searched for souls
Alone he'd never achieve his lofty goals
Peasants and beggars he found
To aid his plans train them & give them the
Strength to share his lands
Welcome to the park step inside my home
It's crowded & it's dark
Yet here I stand alone
An island of my own, like old Prospero built
For my life I atone & I'm armed to the hilt
Wecome to the park
