Domino (Part 1 & 2)

Part 1: In the Glow of the Night

The grey of evening fills the room

There's no need to look outside

To see or feel the rain

Then I reach across to touch her

But I know that she's not there

Rain keeps running down the window pane

Time is running out for me

Can't you see what you are doing to me?

Can't you see what you have done?

As I try to pass another long and sleepless night

A hundred crazy voices call my name

As I try to pass them by

I almost can believe that she is here

Here in the glow of the night

Do you know what you have done?

Do you know what you've begun?

Do you see we shall never be together again?

All of my life

Lonely people, empty rooms

And all the pointless violence, silent tombs

Could it be that we shall be together again?

Sheets of double glazing help to keep outside the night

Only foreign city sirens can cut through

Nylon sheets and blankets help to minimize the cold

But they can't keep out the chilling sounds

Will the nightmare soon give way to dreaming

That she is here with me?

Here in the glow of the night

Do you know what you have done?

Do you know what you've begun?

Do you see we shall never be together again?

All of my life

Lonely people, empty rooms

And all the pointless violence, silent tombs

Could it be that we shall be together again?

Could it be that we shall be together again?

In silence and darkness

We held each other near that night

We prayed it would last forever

Part 2: The Last Domino

Blood on the windows

Millions of ordinary people are there

They gaze at the scenery

They act as if it is perfectly clear

Take a look at the mountains

Take a look at the beautiful river of blood

The liquid surrounds me

I fight to rise from this river of hell

I stare 'round about me

And children are swimming and playing with boats

Their features are changing

Their bodies dissolve and I am alone

Now see what you've gone and done

Now see what you've gone and done

Well now you never did see such a terrible thing

As you've seen last night on the T.V

Maybe if we're lucky, they will show it again

Such a terrible thing to see - oh

But there's nothing you can do when you're next in line

You've got to go, domino

Now I'm one with the living and I'm feeling just fine

I know just what I gotta do

Play the game of happiness and never let on

That it only lives on in a song - oh

Well there's nothing you can do when you're next in line

You've got to go, domino

Do you know what you have done?

And do you know what you've begun?

In silence and darkness

Hold each other near tonight

For will it last forever?

Will it last forever?

Forever...

There's nothing you can do when you're the next in line

You've got to go, domino

Do you know, do you know, do you know what you have done?

Do you see what you've begun?

Cos there's nothing, nothing, nothing

There's nothing you can do, there's nothing you can do

Do you see, do you see what you have done?
