To The Lighthouse

Patrick Wolf

    Continues after the ad

    The day our house collapsed
    I went down stream.
    I followed the swans
    Like i follow my dreams

    Oh I was living on borrowed time in a
    Borrowed house for a borrowed crime
    In need of help i came to your door
    Saw the spike of the railings from
    The 28/3rd floor
    Singing
    "build your castle, stop collecting stones
    And the river bed shall not be your home"

    To the lighthouse my friend!
    I bless your words and education
    To the lighthouse my friend
    Just go! just go!
    To the lighthouse my friend.
    I am sorry that you came to find
    "great great minds
    Against themselves conspire"

    Now the bombs drop around our feet
    Do we throw them back
    Or bow and greet them.
    Everyone now, is so terrifyed
    Of the glowing dark
    And those orange skies

    Sing it:
    "build your castle, stop throwing stones
    Cos' those fire birds are
    Coming down on our homes"

    To the lighthouse my friends
    It cannot even be a question
    To the lighthouse my friends
    We must go, we must go

    To the lighthouse my friends
    It cannot even be a question
    To the lighthouse my friends
    We must go, we must go

    Great great minds
    Against themselves conspire
