The Clocks feat. Mark Pearl

歌詞

(Verse 1) Aeronautical activity is all grounded No F16 jets no alarm sounded Not even a rumour that a terrorist downed it Without any hint of controversy around it No police called everybody is accounted Cover up unnecessary so no facts shrouded Traffic grinds to halt leaving streets crowded and the authorities don't know nothing about it No little old ladies heard saying "oh my!" People getting later but not looking to know why It's like suddenly the signs said 'Don't Drive' Shouldn't someone worry the economy will nosedive? The young and ambitious stop as life goes by Cities that never sleep caught with a closed eye Two year olds get ignored but fail to cry By the side of their parents as they look up to the sky And the seas would part and they'd part for you I'd run anywhere to join you on a path for two and I I don't wanna contemplate what I might do And if I lose you I'll find you, I will find you (Chorus: Mark Pearl) x2 Stop the clocks I'll walk away Cos we've got something untamed If what's beneath falls through Then I'll fall, but I'll fall with you (Verse 2) As if it never happened a computer went dead We could fix this is what a technician would've said. Everything froze only one thing spared e-mail spam's like cockroach eggs People sat in cinemas where darkness glared And analysed the blank space like architects Systems stopped dead not even half a step Dogs stopped barking not cos master said A father paused reading to his daughter in bed While a bloke stood around looking lost in his shed doctors watched on as their patients bled Their patients unfazed and intrigued by the red For a second y'all suckers stopped trying to get cred and the West ceased pumping Islam full of lead Yeah the Goddamn world sat perched on the fence Even analysts hadn't figured out what it meant It's why the seas part and they part for you I'd ask that you join me on a path for two I don't wanna ponder as to what I might do And if I lose you I'll find you, I will find you (Chorus: Mark Pearl) Stop the clocks I'll walk away Cos we've got something untamed If what's beneath falls through Then I'll fall, Then I'll fall, but I'll fall with you Darling let's let them sleep Come and lay next to me Before we set them free I wanna hear your heartbeat x2 (Verse 3) Finally some downtime due to the deadlock Electricity is cut back down to the bedrock Hordes watch on as we walk by shellshocked As if five billion waiting on a bellhop I can whisper the things that I need to a blanket of silence surrounds when it sweeps through The world'll hold on whether or not it agrees to and it'll start again (but I will never leave you) (Chorus: Mark Pearl) x2 Darling let's let them sleep Come and lay next to me Before we set them free I wanna hear your heartbeat
