Living On a Thin Line

All the stories have been told
 Of kings and days of old
 But there's no England now
 (There's no England now)
 All the wars that were won and lost
 Somehow don't seem to matter very much anymore
 ♪
 All the lies we were told (all the lies that we were told)
 All the lies of the people running round
 Their castles have burned
 I see change
 But inside we're the same as we ever were
 Living on a thin line, ooh
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line, ooh (living on a thin line)
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line (living on a thin line)
 Living this way, each day is a dream
 What am I, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line, ooh (living on a thin line)
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Now another century nearly gone
 What are we gonna leave for the young?
 What we couldn't do, what we wouldn't do
 It's a crime, but does it matter?
 Does it matter much, does it matter much to you?
 Does it ever really matter?
 Yes, it really, really matters
 Living on a thin line, ooh (living on a thin line)
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line, ooh (living on a thin line)
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Then another leader says
 "Break their hearts and break some heads"
 Is there nothing we can say or do?
 Blame the future on the past
 Always lost in bloody guts
 And when they're gone, it's me and you
 Living on a thin line, ooh
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line, ooh (living on a thin line)
 Tell me now, what are we supposed to do?
 Living on a thin line, ooh
