Our secrets, you hid so well

A time capsule the future will not find.

And in the belly of a catacomb, a fuselage the future will not hide

                      C
Swallowed by his pride.

           C                 Em
Its like a mobile phone that cant phone home.

       G                          C
Its an endless ringing, and its a silent drone.

      C
Its a passenger, a messenger

  Em                          G
A hectic and hysterical inside

                      C
They throw away our nations pride

                   C
And caution to the wind

     Em         G       C
Like bank notes in the bin.

Like bank notes in the bin.

So make angels in the snow, love a little more

Live with no regrets, for everything you do

                     C            G          Em        D
Because although the lights are on, there is no one home.

And everything you are, everything you were,

                 Em                         D
Everything youve beens not everything youll be.

You tell me Im a grain of sand in an hour glass



              C                              Em
So throw me a land line, this is more like a land mine;

                 G                               C
Just one crossed wire, youll blow the floor beneath our feet

                      C
And the houses of the million civilians

Em                             G
Pre-packed with indifference inside.

                     C
They throw away our nations pride

                    C
And caution to the wind

     Em         G       C
Like bank notes in the bin.

Like bank notes in the bin.
