Version Nation

Guess who's living
Guess who's cooking
Guess who's dying
Out of nothing you come from

I lost my balance
And high wire went haywire
I lost my balance
And high wire went haywire

Now I understand
The mysteries of temptation
They've got no power over me
And no more relation
To the dead and dying
Of a dying nation

Where's the nearest bullet
Where's the blast furnace
I lost my balance
And high wire went haywire
Now the living are gonna lie down
With the dead
That's when i'll joke about it all
Everyone's heart
Breaking from the dread

Now I understand
The mysteries of temptation
They've got no power over me
And no more relation
To the dead and dying
Of a dying nation
