[Verse 1]
Is all that we ve become,
Just nothing but hats and bags
We re waiting for taxi cabs
So you light cigarettes
And i m taking drags
In the air, a sea of words,
That didn t come soon enough
In my mind a railway station
And a ticket stub
[Chorus]
And it is easter in the town
I can hear as they strike off the bell
We re listening to some old man
Say he came back to life with a hole in his head
And now the sunday school is gathered Together in pink and in blue
They re heralding angels for you
But not for me
[Bridge]
They re singing
Gloria in excelsis
Deo deo
Gloria in excelsis
But there s no,
There s no hope
[Verse 2]
And i am grateful for the things
That you ve tried to show to me dear
But there no arcadia
No alby and theres no jerusalem here
And underneath your pastures green
There s earth and there ash
And theres bone
And there are things that dissapear
Into it and then they are gone
[Chorus]
And there is light that hits the sky
And then it is midnight again
And there is my mother, my father,
And you and we are all impermanent
And on the green they tell their tales
About how even the dead can come back
I just dont believe in that
[Bridge]
So you can keep on singing
Gloria in exclelsis
Deo deo
Gloria in excelsis
But there s no,
There s no hope
[Outro]
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing
There s no such thing as ghosts
