Lyrics

All the stories have been told Of kings and days of old But there's no England now (There's no England now) All the wars that were won or lost Somehow don't seem to matter very much anymore All the lies we were told (All the lies we were told) All the lives of the people running 'round Their castles have burned Our eyes see change But inside we're the same as we ever were Living on a thin line Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Living this way, each day's a dream What am I, what are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Now another century nearly gone (Gone) What are we going to leave for the young? What we couldn't do or what we wouldn't do It's a point that doesn't matter Doesn't matter much Doesn't matter much to you Does it ever really matter? Yes, it really, really matters Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Then another leader says "Break their hearts" And breaks some heads Is there nothing we can say or do? Blame the future on the past Always lost in bloody doubts And when they're gone It's me and you Living on a thin line Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line (Living on a thin line) Ooh, tell me now What are we supposed to do? Living on a thin line Ooh
