THE FIGUREHEAD lyrics

The theme is silence in your eye
How they used to fall around your feet
Twisting always in you
You want me away for just the same

You didn't expect all you'd ever be
Knowing there's a way to follow time
See the time nothing changes
Many men will play and stand up
This is the game
You're watching this fade
And going you see it now
Going over now
This is over now
It is over now

A very good concert. These shows were certainly the darkest the band ever performed. The Hanging Garden's lyrics mentioned several times the fall of an angel. Like on tour at the end of 1979, Robert Smith improvised lyrics on the new songs. Photos by milnefaefife.
