Roger Waters - Flickering flame

Tekst :

When my neurons conspire to direct my thoughts
Away from divorce and competitive sports
Back to the place where all rivers run to the sea
Then I shall be free
Yes I shall be free

On a see-saw in a strange land
The jackdaw sat on the Cardinal s hand
And the fiddlers played
And the planners plan what would be
On a back seat in a court room
Sat Molly Malone and Leopold Bloom
Until the police came down with a new broom
And swept them clean

Like Geronimo
Like Quinn the Eskimo
Like the Blackfoot
And like the Arapaho
Like Crazy Horse
I ll be the last one to lay down my gun

On the open road in a bar room
A pick up band plays a new tune
When the coloured girls sing
I feel my heart boom
When a new song hits the right note
When a clearing sky saves an old boat
When an insight strikes the mote
From mine own eye

Like Geronimo
Like Quinn the Eskimo
Like the Blackfoot
And like the Arapaho
Like Crazy Horse
I ll be the last one to lay down my gun

Just out of sight
Beyond the next range
I ll feel the heat of a flickering flame

On an African Plain by a thorn tree
My old friend Philippe is waiting for me
Que cera, cera
What ever will be will be
When a friend dies and the tears rise
From that deep well that never runs dry
And the women break their bracelets
And the men take their whisky outside

In a pied-a-terre on the rue St Denis
The red velvet curtain pulls back to reveal
The place where the dark side meets the angel in me
The angel in me

When my synapses pause in my quest for applause
When my ego lets go of my end of the bone
To focus instead on the love that is precious to me
Then I shall be free
I shall be free

  • When the wind blows
  • Pigs on the wing
  • Mother
  • The powers that be
  • Southampton dock
  • Sunset strip
  • Lost boys calling
  • Get back to radio
  • Time
  • One of my turns
  • Goodbye cruel world
  • The thin ice
  • Each small candle
  • Ca ira
  • Too much rope
  • Happiest days of our lives
  • Who needs information
  • Run like hell
  • Welcome to the machine

    Punk

    Thought to myself what goes on
    Make it up myself I ll never
    Always told a firestarter
    Then another day to shut up

    Back to this town
    Doing what you can
    Bound to look up
    Damn a loser

    Finally won...

    For the moment

    We ve made up our minds
    This must be love
    Cause everything s the way it should be
    As far as we can see
    But do we know the difference between
    The words love and routine
    Are we sure the choices we made

    Opowiedzcie wiatry

    Opowiedzcie wiatry dymne i płomienne
    O tych latach głośnych co jak salwy trzy
    Wstało słońce jasne ponad hałdy ciemne
    Gdy Ślązacy do powstania szli
    Nikt nie zjechał na dół, zgasł hutniczy płomień
    Do powstania każdy szedł tak jak stał
    Jak na szychtę chleba pajdę wziął na drogę
    Jakąś strzelbę, jeśli w schowku miał
    Czy kto dawał wiarę, że...

    Anymore

    I don t know why I am here listening to you anymore
    I can t explain how I feel anymore
    Do you even love me anymore

    {CHORUS}There is something crawling in the back of my head
    saying why do I take this anymore
    there is something wrong and...

    I

    Let down throught the breakthrough
    I travel as I hungerfor the darkness below me
    When I praying for the light above
    To save this soul inside me

    Should I ? Would I ? Could I ?

    Outcast from my own kind never knowing...
