Lyrics Statues of Shame - Black Peaks

Statues of Shame

Often I wake from a dream
A nightmare that could have been seen by all of us
Fools
A city of squalor now while washed in colour and screams
How we screamed
The girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn’t see that far
Can you feel the waves
Crashing on your skin
Washing over
Light becomes all light
I walk through the fields of grey
People of honour cast statues of horror and shame
I come to the end of the line
A girl with a look in her eye one thousand yards long
It’s the girl in the burnt out car
Eyes shouldn’t see that far
Can you feel the waves
Crashing on your skin
Washing over
Light becomes all light
Statues of shame
Watch as they fall away, watch as they all come down
Watch as they fall away, watch as they all come down
Though they never said goodbye
Goodbye
I think I’ve seen her face before
In my dreams I waited for
Goodbye
I think I’ve seen her face before
In my dreams I waited for
