We Are All Gunmen

Lyrics

[Verse 1] No politicians, just compassion Celebrity, its out of fashion Innocence don't take a thrashing On the playground floor Constable paints awesome skies Instead of macing suspects eyes Bankers pay is justified And all nations come in peace [Chorus] We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home [Verse 2] Sun rises on the village green Not digitised on a flat screen Lovers kisses can be seen Darkness holds no fear Everyone drinks socially Not because they're crippled emotionally All our sleep is trouble free Wrapped up in caring arms [Chorus] We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home [Verse 3] Our hopes are old and dressed in rags The faded colour of many flags and the Broken metal of our tags Keeps this dream alive Well, mistrust could never last The future lives and not the past We are only shadows cast Just trying to hold on [Chorus] We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home We are gunmen all The guardians of the watch towers Lighting up the beacons To bring our riders home
