If they throw down a rope in the hope for survivors
Or a boat with an antidote could find us here
Go, go because you're better to the world alive
Go, go you've got a fight in your eye
You know I only lived a delicate life
But I see a future and it's colour and lights
And full of everything you ever really wanted to do
Go, go you know it has to be you
When I was a kid I thought I'd really be a man
Now I know I guess I couldn't understand
The kind of pressure anyone can be under
Every other cloud steals a clap of your thunder
Every other day is a day to ignore
Every other animal a wolf at the door
I can't remember anything I ever really wanted to do
Go, go you know it has to be you
From a new silver city to the nuclear plains
From the corridors of power and whatever remains
Of the government or whoever can hold the reins
And keep everybody pacified and arranged
To the carbon, chemicals and constellations
Saturday supplements, satellite stations
Everybody's going to want to see your name in bloom
Go go you know it has to be you
And if they don't come back for the rest of us
It's alright,
They took the best of us tonight...
