Standing On The Shore - Empire Of The Sun

Standing on the shore

Waiting for the ship in call

There’s something in the way I move

That keeps them on their own

A star explodes a storm

A billion seasons born

A shock to the waves I know

Breaking far from shore

Don’t want to talk

All I hear is noise

Don’t want to talk

The future’s in my hands

I hold it in my palms

Engrave it in the ley lines running

Right down her arms

Speak in silent tongues

The lives reflect the times

The ghost and the shadows fill

The living scene

Don’t want to talk

All I hear is noise

Don’t want to talk
