Ballad Of Bodmin Pill - New Model Army[Songtekst]
BALLAD OF BODMIN PILL
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1987
Smash glass against the wall
Curse the music on the radio that the neighbours play.
Door slams, she turns her head
Watches through the window as he pulls away
Funny how your racing brain drives you so mad
When all the while you feel so numb
TBittersweet - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Once upon a time it was easy
Everything kind of fell into place
Now this feeling won't leave me
We lost the power and we lost the pace
It's staring straight between the eyes
Something isn't right
The harder we try the more we realise
Something isn't right
So bittersweet, this whole thing, sBury The Hatchet - New Model Army[Songtekst]
BURY THE HATCHET
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1990
Bury the hatchet with a smile and a curse
The world is big enough for both of us
The pack's been shuffled now - we've got different hands
There's different enemies for both of us now
There's no one round here who remembers those times
When we were Family Life - New Model Army[Songtekst]
How did they do this to you?
How did they do this to you?
Were you the weapon that they used
As they tore apart the family
Did they bring you here as they were passing through?
How did they do this to you?
And now you don't want to go home
And now you say that you never will go home

FLYING THROUGH THE SMOKE
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1997/99
Red dots - close my eyes - tunnel vision
the cooling towers lik eCathedrals
Pitch black dark, brighter than the sun
Less than zero, more than infinity
Forever the graphics curling on the screen
Forever the numbers counting on and on

GREEN AND GREY
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1987
The time I think most clearly, the time I drift away
Is on the bus-ride that meanders up these valleys of green and grey
I get to think about what might have been and what may yet come true
And I get to pass a rainy mile thinking of you
And all the whHere Comes The War - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Today, as you listen to this song
Another 394,000 children were born into this world
They break like waves of hunger and desire upon these eroded shores
Carrying the curses of history and a history yet unwritten
The oil burns in thick black columns, the buzz saws echo through the forest floorHigher Wall - New Model Army[Songtekst]
HIGHER WALL
(Sullivan/Harris) 1987
We're out here on the borders with our favourite few possessions
Traded stories whispered round the fire
As shadows in the searchlights, mugshots in the files
Waiting in the camps behind the wire
Kick the door until it opens, what you have you cannot hold
I Love The World - New Model Army[Songtekst]
I LOVE THE WORLD
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1988
The roll of distant thunder breaks, the afternoon of silence wakes
They hurry through from Petergate as if they know this dance
In fury blind, I drive at night across the moors, the open roads
Beneath the freezing starry skies, racing in some trance
If You Can't Save Me - New Model Army[Songtekst]
In a nowhere bar-room on the east side of the city
There was a strange smell of burning outside the street
I was giving a sermon like the son of the preacher
I was high of revolution and wild with belief
Across the table she was lighting a cigarette
And in the light fo the flame her eyes flaInheritance - New Model Army[Songtekst]
INHERITANCE
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1988
Mother, Father, I'm doing OK
On the other side of the country, far away
And though I know the things that you want to hear me say
Sometimes these things are hard
Mother, Father, I am your son
Right down to the long thin pointed face
And this muddled upInnocence - New Model Army[Songtekst]
INNOCENCE
Sullivan/Heaton) 1990
Ch: We scream, you run - fall out
You scream and we're gone - falling out
There must have been times in the smoke and the beat on the dance-floor
When all of the doors, they were opening for you
There must have been times when you thought you were kings of Lovesongs - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Under darkening thundering towering skies
We live through these painful days
Walking like strangers in streets of damnation
Under the enemy's gaze
Well we all create monsters
Come back for their masters
The prices the Devil reclaims
It's funny I never thought I'd be the one who would changModern Times - New Model Army[Songtekst]
MODERN TIMES
(Sullivan/Nelson) 1992
It seems strange to write about these things now
but the time has probably come when we should
accept whatever is past and gone and never will return.
Looking back to the beginning
I see a flood of painful memories
and the bitter hurt and wounded prideNo Pain - New Model Army[Songtekst]
NO PAIN
(Sullivan) 1994
Across the town on the other hill,
your lights glow from a different world.
You always found a place to hide - nails and cross to lay beside;
with all the ghosts that we denied.
Now, in rippled arcs across the sky, the great white birds of winter fly;
and the wheeNo Rest - New Model Army[Songtekst]
There is no rest for the wicked ones
Dear God what is this evil that we’ve done?
Is it that we wanted more than you gave?
Why did you put us then in this small town grave?
Humility – is that what you want?
Why did you make us then the way you did?
Yes we have pride, yes we have pride
IPoison Street - New Model Army[Songtekst]
We were singing in the rain – like we invented singing
There’s a light in the sky from a million street lights
And we danced all the steps from all those old time movies
Rolling down the hill with laughing hearts
In Poison Street they guard the gates with bitter, bitter tongues

STUPID QUESTIONS
(Sullivan) 1987
It's not a crime to be innocent, these things we have not done
But you're not some little child, spring is past and gone
Well I know my craving heart and I've seen your vicious eyes
And I think we know the truth, both you and I
Don't flutter your lashes liThe Charge - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Our history speaks in thunder from a thousand village halls
In blood and sweat and sacrifice, in honouring every call
So the forces gathered against the thorn a-piercing in their side
A brave new world is beckoning so the olden world must die.
In the offices of the city, at all the tables of The Hunt - New Model Army[Songtekst]
THE HUNT
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1986
We went into town on the Tuesday night
Searching all the places that you hang about
We're looking for you
In the back street cellar dive drinking clubs
In the discotheques and the gaming pubs
We're looking for you
You will pay the price for my own sweet broVagabonds - New Model Army[Songtekst]
VAGABONDS
(Sullivan) 1987
We follow the taillights out of the city
Moving in a river of red
As the colours fade away from the dusky sunset
We roll for the darkness ahead
Ch: We are old, we are young, we are in this together
Vagabonds and children, prisoners forever
With pulses a-raging Vanity - New Model Army[Songtekst]
'll teach you everything that I know now, Eddie
If you really want to take the time
But don't expect to get answers to anything, Eddie
There is just one thing I've learned
Through everything that I've done and tried
Everything I have justified
It's all vanity, all vanity - we try to have coWhite Coats - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Well we know what makes the flowers grow
but we don't knoiw why
and we all have the knowledge of DNA
but we still die
we perch so thin and fragile here
upon the land
and the earth that moves beneath us we don't understand
so we rush towards the Judgement Day when She reclaims
a toast to theYou Weren't There - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Well, you say it's such a small, small world

curled up safe and warm in the big chair
you were drifting through the skies of anywhere
Get the courtesy car to the Sheraton
there's live on-the-spot reports on the CNN between the ad-breaks
so you think Elvis - These new puritans[Songtekst]
Elvis, I wasn't talking about that king, or...
Elvis, I wasn't talking about that king,
It's confusing
Now we're being watched my experts
We're being...
I try to blurt it out
But I can't find the words
We're all waiting
And if there is a god
Than he'll take me up
Now we're being watched my expertsThis World - New London chorale[Songtekst]
Stars in the evening, clear moon is rising
Nighttime is falling, peace everywhere
While we are sleeping, safe and securely
There in the distance, fire fills the sky
This world is your world
This world is my world (2x)
No one should ever stand all alone
There in the darkness, someone is crying
SomeWorthy is the Lamb - New London chorale[Songtekst]
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
And has redeemed us to God, by His blood
To receive power and riches, and wisdom
And strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
And has redeemed us to God, to God, by His blood
To receive power and riches, and wisdom

My dear
Take what you want from me
I'll give you anything
Just don't leave me on my own
Desperate and destitute
A shadow of the former self I knew

Take what you want from me
I'll give you anything
Just don't leave me on my own
Desperate and destitute

TakeKiss me - New Found Glory[Songtekst]
Kiss me
Out of the bearded barley
Nightly
Beside the green green grass
Swing swing
Swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Oh, kiss me
Beneath the milky twilight
Lead me
Out on the moonlight floor
Lift up your open hand
And strike up the band and make the fireflies dWhat Would I Do - New London chorale[Songtekst]
If you should ever go away
What would I do? I’d cry a river
And if I sometimes say that I don’t care
I’m just pretending I don’t really love you
I’ve always needed you around
Love never goes, love never changes
And I wonder if it’s the things you say
That makes my love grow stronger eDream On Dreamer - Brand New Heavies[Songtekst]
Dream on dreamer, life gets in your way
There you go day and night
Up in the clouds flying so high
You try your best to stretch your mind
Beyond reality and sense and rhyme
You see things that make your big heart sing
Like the flowers trees and birds and pretty things
Hate to put your two feet on Oxygen - New Found Glory[Songtekst]
Constantly connected to the total unexpected
I'm a con, a stealer of hearts
I only keep this facade
To keep you on your toes
I'll take a glance while you sleep at night
Right from under your nose
So don't leave me
Don't leave, don't leave me here
I can't breathe without you
Don't leave, don't leaveWhen I die - New Found Glory[Songtekst]
Now I have finally accepted
We will never stand in the same room
I can never hear your voice of reason
At least you didn't, didn't feel a thing
When I was younger you would tell me
That I should wait to grow up
That things don't go always as planned
At least you didn't, didn't feel a thing
No you Hold my hand - New Found Glory[Songtekst]
The way your hair swings over your eyes.
The motor in my head turns.
Wanting you for such a long time.
In my mind a hard lesson to learn.
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
You'll never know I'm after you,
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do.
You'll never know.
And you smell like,
How angels oughta smell.Forget everything - New Found Glory[Songtekst]
Can we pretend for one second that we are together
What's the point of keeping our feelings at bay
It takes a lot of me to get the nerve
To wake up everyday
And what if i dont, would you even care
Would you even care?
Forget everything that we had done
Erase me from your memory
Don't call, dont ask
