Siren Sunsets - David Knopfler

There’s a list to the right

On this sinking ship

Crimson clouds alight

At the sunset

There’s a shift to the right

On this dying ship

All those blues in the night

After sunset

All my words have been blowin' away

All my dreams for this dark ballet

Now I know that we just can’t stay

For siren sunsets

No heroes to light the way

From our failing ship

Drowning alone on Independence Day

Under siren sunsets

All my words have been blowin' away

Fallacies and a passion play

And a circle of stars that we’re folding away

For siren sunsets

It’s a brave new dawn

Trapped in a tourniquet

And a spangle of stars

We gave away

For siren sunsets

For a shadow play

For siren sunsets

Siren sunsets
