1. Let england shake lyrics
2. The last living rose
3. The glorious land
4. The words that maketh murder
5. All and everyone
6. On battleship hill
7. England
8. In the dark places
9. Bitter branches
10. Hanging in the wire
11. Written on the forehead
12. The colour of the earth

The West's asleep. Let England shake,
weighted down with silent dead.
I fear our blood won't rise again.

England's dancing days are done.
Another day, Bobby, for you to come home
& tell me indifference won.

Smile, smile Bobby, with your lovely mouth.
Pack up your troubles, let's head out
to the fountain of death
& splash about, swim back and forth
& laugh out loud,

until the day is ending,
& the birds are silent in the branches,
& the insects are courting in the bushes,
& by the shores of lovely lakes
heavy stones are falling.
