Lyrics:
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play
The ties that bind us just slip away.
We came to dance
The piper calls out a different rhyme
He cracks the whip and we step in time.
Standing as the parade goes passing by
I hear a voice around my cry.
Like the sound of a distant drums
Rejected and alone.
A heart without a home
Then someone said:
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play...
We came to dance.
Waiting as the panic grips my hand
Hearing prose from high command
Like a million times before
No dignity or grace
It's the price and not the race
And someone said:
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play...
We came to dance.
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play
The ties that bind us just slip away.
Take what you can
They said take it while you may.
But keep in mind penalty fits the crime
And it deals no softened blow.
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play...
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play...
We came to dance
Making moves from a passion play...

Lyrics:
We were so young, we were too vain
Dance in the dark, sing in the rain
Time on our hands, hope in our hearts
We were talking, passing strangers
Moments caught across an empty room
Wasted whispers, faded secrets
Quickly passes, time goes, time goes by too soon
We stood alone, silent and proud
Moments unknown, lost in a crowd
Running through memories like thieves in the night
Clutching emotions, holding too tight
Hope turns to dust, shattered by light
We were talking, passing strangers
Moments caught across an empty room
Wasted whispers, faded secrets
It quickly passes, time goes, time goes by too soon
We were talking, passing strangers
Moments caught across an empty room
Wasted whispers, faded secrets
It quickly passes, time goes, time goes by too soon
We were talking, passing strangers
Moments caught across an empty room
Wasted whispers, faded secrets

Music video by Ultravox performing Lament (2009 Digital Remaster).
And just as my eyes start seeing
After all the pain
The twist in my life starts healing
Just to twist again
In stillness, in sorrow
Returns that softly sighing lament
And just as the smiles returning
After all the pain
The fire inside stops burning
Just to burn again
In moments of madness
Returns that softly sighing lament

Lyrics:
The sound is on the visions move
The image dance starts once again
They shuffle with a bovine grace and glide in syncopation
Just living lines from books weve read
With atmospheres of days gone by
With paper smiles
The screenplay calls a message for the nation
And those who sneer will fade and die
And those who laugh will surely fall
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall
The thin wall
Thin wall
Grey men who speak of victory
Shed light upon their stolen life
They drive by night and act as if theyre moved by unheard music
To step in time and play the part
With velvet voices smooth and cold
Their power games a game no more
And long the chance to use it
And those who sneer will fade and die
And those who laugh will surely fall
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall
The thin wall
Thin wall
And those who dance will spin and turn
And those who wait will wait no more
And those talk will hear the word
And those who sneer will fade and die
And those who laugh will surely fall
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall
The thin wall
Thin wall
The thin wall
The thin wall
The thin wall
The thin wall
And those who dance
The thin wall
And those who talk
The thin wall
And those who sneer
The thin wall
And those who laugh
The thin wall
And those who know
The thin wall
And those who dance
The thin wall
And those who wait
The thin wall
And those who talk")

Lyrics:
I give to you the best of everything
Im here to grow your little monuments
Oh oh, dont dare to doubt me all the joy i bring
Its heaven sent
Hold on, ive come to help you rise
With a handshake, big smile, good guy profile
Take it now or leave it neath the flash of a neon sky
Ill cheat and lie
To give you all the things you need
To help you get the things i need for me
I bring you revelations openly
I set the word of god to make you pray
Oh oh, dont think to thank my world for anything, anyway
Hold on, ive come to help you rise
With a handshake, big smile, good guy profile
Take it now or leave it neath the flash of a neon sky
Ill cheat and lie
To give you all the things you need
To help you get the things i need for me
Hold on, ive come to help you rise
To give you all the things you need
No how or why
No live or die
Fail to comply
Red neon sky
Hold on, ive come to help you rise
With a handshake, big smile, good guy profile
Take it now or leave it neath the flash of a neon sky
Ill cheat and lie
To give you all the things you need
To help you get the things i need for me
Take it now or leave it neath the flash of a neon sky
To give you all the things you need
To help you get the things i need for me")

Lyrics:
If the stack is high against you
And the hammers coming down
And the time thats yours lies heavy in your hands
Oh my sentimental friend
The fast much reach an end
Lying face down on the cold stone
And they give their all to you
But their all is slipping through your hands
Oh my sentimental friend
Your time will come again
One day where I didnt die a thousand times
Where I could satisfy this life of mine
One small day
One day where every hour could be a joy to me
And live a life the way its meant to be
One small day
How many times has it turned against you
How many times will they walk away
How many times have you let depression win the fight
Oh my sentimental friend
Well walk as one again
One day where I didnt die a thousand times
Where I could satisfy this life of mine
One small day
One day where every hour could be a joy to me
And live a life the way its meant to be
One small day
How many times has it turned against you
How many times will they walk away
One day where I didnt die a thousand times
Where I could satisfy this life of mine
One day where every hour could be a joy to me
And live a life the way its meant to be
One day where I wouldnt feel my senses die
Where nothing made me hang my head and cry
One day where I could see myself as others do
Where I could feel the strength of love at hand
One day where I didnt die a thousand times
Where I could satisfy this life of mine
One day where every hour could by a joy to me
And live a life the way its meant to be
