Wise Up Ghost |
| Last lions roar before they’re tamed |
| I stood out in the glorious reign |
| Knowing full well I can’t go home again |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Yield some sighs up |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Go on your merry way now if you must |
| Fool’s Gold turns rivets into rust |
| 'Til you don’t know who to trust |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Yield some sighs up (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Old woman living in a cardboard shoe |
| Lost so many souls, she don’t know what to do |
| So, say your prayers 'cos down the stairs it’s 1932 |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| She revolves around a sparkling pole |
| Stares into the mirrored wall |
| Sees another woman walking through a market stall |
| (She's pulling out the pin) |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| (She's pulling out the pin) |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Yield some sighs up (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Lost girl found on the radio |
| Down around Larado |
| Go direct to hell you murdering so-and-so |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Trapped within a House of Feathers |
| Sitting in a Shirt of Wire |
| Howling at a Wall of Flowers |
| Saying «Wise Up Ghost» |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Yield some sighs up (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| I walked along an iron pier |
| Where Rose’s kisses turned to tears |
| Saltwater rushing over the pebbles under there |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Last sigh of passion |
| Slipped into the room like an assassin |
| Glad tidings we bring |
| For you and your King |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Yield some sighs up (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Wise Up Ghost (Wise Up Ghost) |
| Last lions roar before they’re tamed |
| I stood out in the glorious reign |
| Knowing full well I can’t go home again |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Wise Up |
| When are you going to rise up? |
| Wise Up Ghost |
| Yield some sighs up |
| Wise Up Ghost |
