The Turning of the Tide by Chris Robson
[Intro]
[verse]
Just cos you were standing at the back, does that mean youâre not to blame
Just because you didnât see, does that mean youâre not the same
As those who cast the bloody stone, and now you try to stand alone
Try to camouflage deceit, but the shoes donât fit your feet.
[chorus]
Through the clearing of the haze, I can clearly see your face
And as they get into their stride itâs the turning of the tide.
[verse]
They want to start another war, you wonât say but youâre not sure
Try to justify your mind, leave your feelings far behind.
And when they see through your disguise, when they open up their eyes
When they see what youâve become, is that when you start to run.
[chorus]
Through the clearing of the haze, I can clearly see your face
And as they get into their stride itâs the turning of the tide.
[refrain]
You donât fool anyone with your lying
Oh no not even half the time.
You donât ever see the dying
You wonât bare witness to the crime, at the turning of the tide.
[verse]
And when I finally make you see, that youâre not the same as me
Will it be too late to try, try to make you change your mind.
And if you ever turn around, will you listen to the sound
Will you listen to the screams, come to haunt you in your dreams.
[chorus]
Cos through the clearing of the haze, you will finally see their face
And as you get into your stride itâs the turning of the tide.
And as you get into your stride itâs the turning of the tide.
And as you get into your stride itâs the turning of the tide.
[Outro]
