The White Papers - Wrong Side of the Fire lyrics

Oleander come to bloom But don't break the skin It won't close again You can't imagine It's just like when we return so warm All swollen from the outrage They've come to inhabit Low lights will start in scores Until the edge of the water's lost From our vantage And if the burning should hold them forth Well the Gulf has got a thousand ways That aren't so tragic Every husk will drift unturned Loathsome tide, drag them out again It feels so drastic But wicked things have become They're chasing us from the West End Badmen, it's savage! So just remind me what I said In case I have to take it back someday Out of habit Because we're only lonely outside When you hide yourself Because your old life just no longer had it And we're lonely outside When the inside's gone black And it stems from the awe Of low-lying damage But we're just lonely outside So our insides can stoke the flames And they've gone and slipped away Oh, badmen, gone and swept away Badmen gone and swept away Gone and swept away
