[bridge]

I guess it's my fate

Something I can't shake

There it goes again

Somewhere near the end


[Chorus]

From an echo in the concert halls

To the cemetery walls

There ain't nothing I can do

To get next to you

With your face up against the wall

Here comes the night

Set the fairlight


[Verse 1]

When there's nowhere to go

Put a bomb in the case

And if nobody moves

Then nobody can chase

And thеre's something in the way

I can't еxplain

It's on the left side

If it don't feel right

There's something in the way

That the rhythm relayed

Now is it even there?

Sometimes I don't know

And you don't hear the knock

So nobody come in

When you go right to the end

There's nowhere to begin

Now I got someone to let me in


[bridge]

I guess that's the way

That it moves along

I can't hardly wait

To see where it goes wrong


[Chorus]

From the echo from inside the halls

To the front of cemetery walls

There ain't nothing i can do

To get next to you

With your face up against the wall

Here comes the night

Set the fairlight


[Verse 2]

Where will you go to

Come away with your life?

When you charge with a gun

And you run with a knife

Now you're over the road

And you're under the light

When there's nowhere to go

And nobody to fight

I know how you move

With the bang of a drum

And you jump from the roof

Where you don't feel the hum

There's nothing in your way

Some things you can't explain

But you don't hear the knock

So nobody come in

When you go right to the end

There's nowhere to begin

Now I got someone to let me in


[instrumental interlude]


[Chorus]

From the echo in the concert halls

To the cemetery walls

There ain't nothing I can do

To get next to you

With your face up against the wall

Here comes the night

Set the fairlight


[outro]

I'm gonna set the fairlight

I'm gonna set the fairlight

I'm gonna set the fairlight

I'm gonna set the fairlight
