Angola

Heat pouring in through the holes slowing traffic to a crawl Time, time is only silhouettes, shadow puppets on the wall Pouring in through the holes slowing traffic to a crawl Makes you tick but don't forget that you can never have it all

Listen to the raindrops falling on the treetops Angola, Angola, I never should have left you alone

Many miles from home on the dawn patrol Where the elephants roam and the red hills roll Red sand red sand like a sea of blood Cold hands on the trigger wet boots in the mud Listen to the gunshots echo through the treetops Angola, Angola, I never should have left you alone The world's on fire, there's nowhere to run The world's on fire, try and hold on

And if you're doing what you shouldn't turn the other way Because the proof is in the pudding so the old wives say You gotta cut that rope till your hands are free And throw off that yoke that keeps you on your knees Listen to the gunshots echo 'cross the rooftops Angola, Angola, I never should have left you alone The world's on fire, there's nowhere to run The worlds' on fire, try and hold on

Can you feel it, can you feel it, I can taste it, I can taste it Is it real now, is it real now, did we make it, did we make it Can you feel it, can you feel it, I can taste it, I can taste it If we dream it, if we dream it, we can make it, we can make it

Angola, Angola, I never should have left you Angola, Angola, I never should have left you alone Angola, Angola, I never should have left you Angola, Angola, I never should have left you alone
