A Day Long Past It's Prime Songtext
Here is a day long past its prime
And it's starting to show
The pavement's cold, the window's closed
And there's too long a shadow
And there's too long a shadow

Time for a night out, time for a break
Time to shake, shake it off
The holy centre's coming down
And I'm bracing myself
And I'm bracing myself

Torch the old valley
Surround the hounds
Light up our desolation sound
Give my misery a place to rest
Then let me rest in peace
At last
At last

My perfect moment, it came and went
And I stood standing still
I became a fixture there
Just a stone on the hill
Just a stone on the hill

Here is a day long past its prime
Time to put it to bed
Give me the night to revive
I'll be upright again
I'll be upright again

Torch the old valley
Surround the hounds
Light up our desolation sound
Give my misery a place to rest
Then let me rest in peace
At last
At last

Here is a day long past its prime
And it's starting to show
The pavement's cold, the window's closed
And there's too long a shadow
And there's too long a shadow

Torch the old valley
Surround the hounds
Light up our desolation sound
Give my misery a place to rest
Then let me rest in peace
At last
At last
At last
At last
