Alphaville - Pandora's Lullaby lyrics
[Alphaville - Pandora's Lullaby lyrics]
So you hugged the globe
Now it's whirling too fast
I've really got no hope to
Hang on to the past the train has departed
The toxins have started
To announce that none will last
I cower in the gutter of a
World that's not so near
And I listen to their mutters that
Are spinning through the air
The words unspoken, the promises broken
And the ones who really care
I'm the watcher of the scene
I see our shadows on the screen
And when the subway brakes to
Preserve some suicidal bee
I stop to breathe for a while
Maybe it was me
This is the world gliding by
Like the driftwood beams
On a lifetime's stream
The instant fundamental sky
For Pandora's Lullaby
I see distorted faces coined like gold
And in their wrinkles programs
That commercial gurus told
A watermark against a spark
Umbrellas that they hold
I'm gliding in the distance and
Watch the world go by
An orbit full of questions, a perforated sky
Buy I just sit and wonder a bit
That they never wonder why
This is the world gliding by
Like the driftwood beams
On a lifetime's stream
The instant fundamental sky
For Pandora's Lullaby for Pandora's Lullaby
For Pandora's Lullaby lullaby
Now it's whirling too fast
I've really got no hope to
Hang on to the past the train has departed
The toxins have started
To announce that none will last
I cower in the gutter of a
World that's not so near
And I listen to their mutters that
Are spinning through the air
The words unspoken, the promises broken
And the ones who really care
I'm the watcher of the scene
I see our shadows on the screen
And when the subway brakes to
Preserve some suicidal bee
I stop to breathe for a while
Maybe it was me
This is the world gliding by
Like the driftwood beams
On a lifetime's stream
The instant fundamental sky
For Pandora's Lullaby
I see distorted faces coined like gold
And in their wrinkles programs
That commercial gurus told
A watermark against a spark
Umbrellas that they hold
I'm gliding in the distance and
Watch the world go by
An orbit full of questions, a perforated sky
Buy I just sit and wonder a bit
That they never wonder why
This is the world gliding by
Like the driftwood beams
On a lifetime's stream
The instant fundamental sky
For Pandora's Lullaby for Pandora's Lullaby
For Pandora's Lullaby lullaby
