Angels rub their eyes
A frown on their faces
The future's floating by
I'm too tired to chase it
Build a ladder to the stars
? one by one
The angles dry their eyes
Marooned in the sky tonight
You can turn this world to stone
Build a wall till you're on your own
You can close the window tight
But you can't keep out the night
Televisions smile
And fools never doubt it
Whispers multiply
They all want to shout it
Build a ladder to the stars
? one by one
The angles dry their eyes
Marooned in the sky tonight
You can turn this world to stone
Build a wall till you're on your own
You can close the window tight
But you can't keep out the night
