_ _ _ _ Through the city nightmares you'd walk with me, _ and we'd talk of it with idealistic [Ab]
assurance,
but it [Ebm] wouldn't tear us apart.
_ _ We'd keep our heads above the blackened water, _ _ but there's no room for ideals in this [Bb] mechanical place.
And you're gone now, [Eb] gone now, gone now. _ _ _

_ _ _ Through a grimy window that can't keep [Abm] clean, [Eb] _
through billowing smoke that's swallowed the sun,
[Abm] _
_ _ _ [Ebm] you're nowhere to be seen.
_ Do [Abm] _

_ _ _ _ you think our desires still burn? _
[Eb] I guess those desires that tore us [Abm] apart.
_ There [Ebm] has to be _ _ [Eb] passion, _ a passion for living, _ _ surviving, _ [Abm] _ [Eb] and that means detachment.
_ _ [Gb] Everybody [Eb] has a weapon to fight you with, to beat you with when you're down. _ _
There were too many defences between us.
[Ab] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Ab] Doubting all the time, fearing all the time, [N]
doubting all the time, fearing all the time.
The blackness of the nightmares, with [Ebm] blackness of the skies.

_ _ _ _ _
the subways, we tried to ignore our fate there.
Our Britain's threats on endless [Ebm] walls, _ unjustified crimes carried in _ [Abm] cyclotrons.
_ [Eb] _ Talk with me now through this pouring rain.
It used to mingle with our tears, _ then dry with the hopes that we left behind. _ _
It rains even [Abm] harder now, [Eb]
rains even harder. _ _ _ _
