Rising in the east....

Here under western skies
A story we should not forget again reprised
An old man waving promises.
Prayers for the dead.

Now here is an end in sight
Hold me now, tell me everything’s alright
So is this the fading light?
Hold me now, send me into this good night.

Was it ever black or white?
Was it ever wrong or right?
Is always fight or flight,
And who should call it?
Did you hear the voices in the green fields,
Small hope flickering in newsreels.
Milltown ghosts.

Now here is an end in sight
Hold me now, tell me everything’s alright
So is this the fading light?
Hold me now, send me into this good night

Oh dear. Metafilter Music seems to be a bit like outer space. Cold. Dead. Silent. Can I have my money back, mister? Please??
