You saw my sun down She makes me run round Where's the fun now Where's the fun now And I feel run down She breaks the love down I feel real now/the real love (?) She says I'm too proud Tirzah: Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sight Keep you in the back Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sun Where you found out Is when you talk loud Don't want to put you down If you are mine now Can see you fade out Why won't you stay now Shadow cause down (?) You didn't heave on the ground (?) Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sight Keep you in the back Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sun Tricky: You saw my sun down She makes me run round Where's the fun now Where's the fun now And I feel run down She breaks the love down I feel real now/the real love (?) She says I'm too proud Tirzah: Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sight Keep you in the back Keep you in the back of my mind You're always in my sun from:_

Why have some of my friends died Dedicate to the fallen friends in the streets The loved The unloved Now they're forgotten (?) We must make ... nothing Think of your ways Try making the world thinking of you Keeping your memories alive We demand recognition for the fallen soldiers of the streets We need a revolution We got (?) all the top men The bad men Let's start a revolution Teach the kids how to... the streets... Why's in the world... We're meant to be intelligent animals Why have we lost so many in the streets fighting and getting involved in the darker aspects Or misunderstanding This precious fragile life We need a positive revolution Take back the world Whose world is this It's ours The masses The revolution people from:_
