Holiday / Boulevard of Broken Dreams

Lyrics

Say hey!
 Cha!
 ♪
 Hear the sound of the falling rain
 Coming down like an Armageddon flame (hey!)
 The shame, the ones who died without a name
 Hear the dogs howling out of key
 To a hymn called "Faith and Misery" (hey!)
 And bleed, the company lost the war today
 I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
 This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
 On holiday
 Hear the drum pounding out of time
 Another protester has crossed the line (hey!)
 To find the money's on the other side
 Can I get another Amen? (Amen!)
 There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (hey!)
 A gag, a plastic bag on a monument
 I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
 This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
 On holiday
 ♪
 Hey!
 ♪
 Three, four
 ♪
 The representative from California has the floor
 "Sieg Heil" to the president Gasman
 Bombs away is your punishment
 Pulverize the Eiffel towers
 Who criticize your government
 "Bang-bang!" goes the broken glass, and
 Kill all the fags that don't agree
 Trials by fire, setting fire
 Is not a way that's meant for me
 Just 'cause (hey, hey, hey)
 Just 'cause, because we're outlaws, yeah!
 I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
 This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
 I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
 This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
 This is our lives on holiday
 ♪
 I walk a lonely road
 The only one that I have ever known
 Don't know where it goes
 But it's home to me, and I walk alone
 ♪
 I walk this empty street
 On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
 Where the city sleeps
 And I'm the only one, and I walk alone
 I walk alone, I walk alone
 I walk alone, I walk a-
 My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
 My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
 Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me
 'Til then, I walk alone
 Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
 Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
 I'm walking down the line
 That divides me somewhere in my mind
 On the borderline
 Of the edge and where I walk alone
 ♪
 Read between the lines
 What's fucked up and everything's alright
 Check my vital signs
 To know I'm still alive and I walk alone
 I walk alone, I walk alone
 I walk alone, I walk a-
 My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
 My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
 Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
 'Til then I walk alone
 Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
 Ah-ah, ah-ah, I walk alone, I walk a-
 ♪
 I walk this empty street
 On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
 Where the city sleeps
 And I'm the only one, and I walk a-
 My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
 My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
 Sometimes, I wish someone out there will find me
 'Til then, I walk alone
