Echo & The Bunnymen: "Flaming Red" Lyrics

Failures child is weak and mild

Wide-eyed and ___________

A moment is the most

Shell hang her day upon

Others plan a life

Without the faintest hope of change

And belay all her knowledge

Of where hope has gone



In these ugly times

An ugly mind will have its say

And your betters would not

Have it any other way



Oh my eyesfor the sins

I may not shed

Burn like coals

Inside my head

Smoldering black

And flaming red



Oh my eyesfor the sins

I may not shed

Burn like coals

Inside my head

Smoldering black

And flaming red



Reconciled and pacified

By bread and circus clowns

Who keep you all in stitches

As they keep you down

Dust yourself down



Tell me what on earth

The fuss was for

cause what youve seen is nothing

To whats still in store



In these ugly times

An ugly mind will have its say

And your betters would not

Have it any other way



Oh my eyesfor the sins

I may not shed

Burn like coals

Inside my head

Smoldering black

And flaming red



Oh my eyesfor the sins

I may not shed

Burn like coals

Inside my head

Smoldering black

And flaming red



Oh my eyesfor the sins

I may not shed

Burn like coals

Inside my head

Smoldering black

And flaming red
