Paul Shapera - The Day They Come lyrics

(Narrator) Circles never stop themselves, nothing that you've ever held were you promised or reneged and sometimes when you lose, you win. (Jasper) Priscilla, what'd you do? When You come for me You know they'll also k** you too You're young, your song unsung There's too much still for you to do (Priscilla) All these years you're here, you suffer quietly, it's barbarous to think that's fair There's no one who thinks of you The game is gonna end right here I'd help you to Die, if I could, but… (Jasper) Priscilla, what'd you do? Now they'll come and you must Run or else they'll k** you too Your life so I can die Is wrong and you must know that's true Ghosts of life, ghosts of lives I've watched fall and pa** me by Ghosts of all the selfish, vain All the blindness, all the pain All the fool and petty games All the shallow all the same (Priscilla) I'd help you to die if I could , love Some sacrifice anyway Some sacrifice it all away (Soldier 7285 and his 2 other squad members burst into the room) (Soldier 7285) And on the day we come it's over And you will have your fate laid out and spun, it's execution And u may pray if you get comfort It's on this day your duty's done And on this day you've been caught guilty, the sentence citizen is d**h It will be carried out this instant Say any prayers that u want said (Jasper) One day you will learn And u will burn like my heart burns One day you will learn And u will burn like my heart burns Ghosts of all the selfish, vain All the blindness, all the pain All the fool and petty games All the shallow all the same (Priscilla) Some speak about love, in a sweet way Some sentiment of Bliss and dream states Some speak about love In a kind way, Some sentiment of rapturous states And some sacrifice Some sacrifice Some sacrifice Some sacrifice (Jasper) Please, my angel, my angel Please my angel, my angel Please, my angel, my angel Please my angel, my angel (Soldier 7285) I am the arm of execution I am the trigger of your gun I am the binding and the order It's on this day you're duty's done (Priscilla) Please go back to Berths of black To silent shores From me once more Through veils and gates And seas of slate And blood red mores where I'll See you once more Circles never stop themselves Nothing that you've ever held Were you promised or reneged And sometimes when you lose, you win (The squad shoots and k**s Priscilla and Jasper. Soldier 7285 does not, however, shoot.) credits
