1. EASTER

A ghost of a mist was on the field
The grey and the Green together
The noise of a distant farm machine
Out of the first light came

A tatered necklace of hedge and trees
On the southern side of the hill
Betrays where the border runs between
Where Mary Dunoon's boy fell

Easter here again
A time for the Blind to see
Easter
Surely now can all of your hearts be free

Out of the port of Liverpool
Bound for the North of Ireland
The wash of the spray and horsetail waves
The roll of the sea below

And Easter here again
A time for the Blind to see
Easter
Surely now can all of your hearts be free

What will you do?
Make a stone of your Heart?
Will you set things right
When you tear them apart?
Will you sleep at night

With the Plough and the Stars alight?
What will you do?
With the wire & the gun?
That'll set things right

When it's said and done?
Will you sleep at night?
Is there so much love to hide?
Forgive
Forget
Sing 'Never again'




2. THE RELEASE

The alarm by the bed
Wring the dreams from my head
It’s a new day
Leave the flakes in the bowl
Milk unopened, I’m gone

But I’m still late...
Join the fight for a cab
Take our place in the jam
And watch the clock again

There is a man in my head
I think he came from the screen...
Or the bible
All he wants is for me is to be strong

But I seem to be unreliable
You know it gets so hard
When everything you are
Is everything you don’t want to be

But at the end of the day
You’re the one who burns it all away
The end of the day
You’re the one
You’re the one
The end of the day

So won’t you show me those pictures, you hold in your head
And can you lose me somewhere inside them all
Because there are colours that run through the heart of me
That only you can see

But at the end of the day
You’re the one who burns it all away
The end of the day
You’re the one
You’re the one

The end of the day
You’re the one who burns it all away
You burn it all away
Would you burn it all away
Would you burn it all away
