To the Lighthouse - Patrick Wolf

The day our house collapsed

I went down stream.

Ifollowed the swans

Like i follow my dreams.

Oh!

i was living on borrowed time in a Borrowed house for a borrowed crime.

In need of help i came to your door.

Saw the spike of the railings from

The 28/3rd floor.

Singing

«build your castle, stop collecting stones

And the river bed shall not be yoru home»

To the lighthouse my friend!

Ibless your words and education

To the lighthouse my friend.

Just go!

just go!

To the lighthouse my friend.

I am sorry that you came to find

«great great minds

Against themselvesconspire'

Now the bombs drop around our feet,

Do we throw them back

Or bow and greet them.

Everyone now, is so terrifyed

Of the glowing dark

And those orange skies.

Sing it:

'build your castle, stop throwing stones

Cos' those fire birds are

Coming down on our homes"

To the lighthouse my friends

It cannot even be a question

To the lighthouse my friends

We must go, we must go
