Throwing Stones Sözleri

Picture a bright blue ball

Just spinning, spinning free

Dizzy with eternity

Paint it with a skin of sky

Brush in some clouds and sea

Call it home for you and me

A peaceful place or so it looks from space

A closer look reveals the human race

Full of hope, full of grace, is the human face

But afraid, we may lay our home to waste

There's a fear down here we can't forget

Hasn't got a name just yet

Always awake, always around

Singing ashes to ashes all fall down

Ashes to ashes all fall down

Now watch as the ball revolves and the nighttime falls

And again the hunt begins and again the bloodwind calls

By and by again, the morning sun will rise

But the darkness never goes from some men's eyes

It strolls the sidewalks and it rolls the streets

Staking turf, dividing up meat

Nightmare spook, piece of heat

It's you and me, you and me

Click, flashblade in ghetto night

Rudie's looking for a fight

Rat cat alley roll them bones

Need that cash to feed that jones

And the politician's throwing stones

Singing ashes to ashes all fall down

Ashes to ashes all fall down

Commissars and pin-striped bosses role the dice

Any way they fall guess who gets to pay the price

Money green or proletarian gray

Selling guns instead of food today

So the kids they dance, and shake their bones

And the politician's throwing stones

Singing ashes to ashes all fall down

Ashes to ashes all fall down

Heartless powers try to tell us what to think

If the spirit's sleeping, then the flesh is ink, yeah

History's page, it is thusly carved in stone

The future's here, we are it, we are on our own

On our own. On our own. On our own.

(guitar solo)

If the game is lost then we're all the same

No one left to place or take the blame

We will leave this place an empty stone

Or that shinning ball of blue we can call our home

So the kids they dance, they shake their bones

And the politicians, throwing stones

Singing ashes to ashes all fall down

Ashes to ashes, all fall down

Shipping powders back and forth

Singing "black goes south and white comes north"

And the whole world full of petty wars

Singing "I got mine and you got yours"

And the current fashions set the pace

Lose your step, fall out of grace

And the radical he rant and rage

Singing "someone got to turn the page"

And the rich man in his summer home,

Singing "Just leave well enough alone"

But his pants are down, his cover's blown

And the politicians throwing stones

So the kids they dance they shake their bones

Cause its all too clear we're on our own

Sing ashes to ashes, all fall down

Ashes to ashes, all fall down

Picture a bright blue ball just spinning, spinning free

It's dizzying, the possibilities

Ashes to Ashes, all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes to Ashes, all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes to Ashes, all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes to Ashes, all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Wo, fall down, (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Wo, fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes, Ashes all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Wo, fall down, (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Wo, fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes, Ashes all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes, Ashes all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)

Ashes, Ashes all fall down (Ashes to Ashes, all fall down)
