Don’t think out loud
Play dead when you fall
Don’t answer their call
Keep yourself to yourself

I walked through the silence and the colour and the heat
And in the twilight saw his fingers play the barrel of his gun
The silence is chilling
Then it starts again
The voice comes from nowhere
And then I see the radio
We curve round and down and off the bridge
The big sign with the stars over looking the falls
When he comes into the room
One thing that strikes me is the tune
They think they know, they don’t know anything at all
And when the telephone does ring
When you are walking through the rain
And then you know that there is someone after all
Play dead when you fall
Do nothing at all
Keep your feet on the ground
Blend in with the crowd
Blend
