Lyrics
Roma
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Rome, oh rome
Where is your empire in the ground
A pile of stones
Take out the wind there's not a sound
Hundreds of years
Yet it's all stayed the same
Just different coloured clothes
And a different sounding name
The weather keeps on changing
But the sky’s still there
The lights had led me to the front
And burnt me like a flare
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be up
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be up
Rome, oh rome
Cycles of nature you can see
We've got frail bones
We could just break so easily
Hundreds of years
Yet it's all stayed the same
Just different coloured clothes
And a different sounding name
The weather keeps on changing
But the sky's still there
The lights had led me to the front
And burnt me like a flare
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be up
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be up
Craters in the street
Now are things you have to keep
Saw you in my sleep
With diamonds in a rubbish heap
Craters in the street
Now are things you have to keep
Saw you in my sleep
With diamonds in a rubbish heap
And you'll never know
Things will stay untold
Some things will never be
And you'll never know
Things will stay untold
Some things will never be
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be up
Oh what is this anchor here
Why won't it just disappear
Driven by a fear that just won't go
And yet you come so close
Yet you're so far away
It doesn't have to be uphill
