[Verse 1]

I'm cracking the code

Bit by bit

Don't ask me why

Or what I want with it

I'm rolling back the stone

From the tomb

So our secret talk

We can resume

[Verse 2]

I'm cracking the code

Working through the night

It's been there for years

But it's only just come to light

I'm searching through the shadows

Looking for a clue

I'm pulling back the undergrowth

Just to catch a better view

[Chorus]

I like the green of far away fields

But I'm not too green to forget what is real

A lie's a lie whatever the shade

However sweet the tongue

However ripe the promise made

[Verse 3]

Still I'm cracking the code

But it eats at me

I don't understand

The life it leads

In silent valleys

Across centuries

A music and a weapon

Your ruthless tease

[Verse 4]

I'm cracking the code

I must do it alone

I thought we could crack it together

But each must crack his own

For yours is a code

I'll never understand

So I'll just slip back into the shadows

And keep speaking with the land

[Chorus]

I like the green of far away fields

But I'm not too green to forget what is real

A lie's a lie whatever the shade

However sweet the tongue

However ripe the promise made

[Bridge]

Why don't you

Surprise me, baby

Make it all worthwhile

Spring forth from the silence

Do it in style

But I know you will stay silent

And I'll not take it thick

Mar an té nach bhfuil laidir

Caithfidh sé a bheidh glic

[Chorus]

A lie's a lie whatever the shade

However sweet the tongue

However ripe the promise made

However sweet the tongue

However ripe the promise made

[Outro]

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code

Cracking, cracking, cracking the code
