Marillion

Marillion are a British rock band, formed in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, in 1979. Their recorded studio output since 1982 is composed of seventeen albums generally regarded in two distinct eras, delineated by the departure of original frontman Fish in late 1988, and the subsequent arrival of replacement Steve Hogarth in early 1989. All four albums released with Fish were commercial successes, and the band released eleven Top 40 hits on the UK Singles Chart, including 1985's "Kayleigh", which reached No. 2 and became their biggest hit single. more »

Our wide eyes 
Aren't naive 
They're a product of a conscious decision 
The welcoming smile is the new Cool 
The key left in the outside of the unlocked door 
Isn't forgetfulness 
It's a challenge to change your heart 
There's always a price to pay 
Living in f e a r is so very dear 
Can you really afford it? 

We’ve decided to risk melting our guns as a show of strength 
We’ve decided to risk melting our guns as a show of strength 
As a show of strength! 

Our wide eyes are not so weak 
They’re a product of a hard-won wisdom 
So we will turn the other cheek 
The apple pie cooling on the windowsill 
Is such a welcome change from 
Living in fear 
Year after year after year 
Can we really afford it? 
Can you really afford it? 

We have decided to start melting our guns as a show of strength 
As a show of strength 
We decided to leave the doors unlocked, our face unlocked 
As a show of strength

We're not green 
We're just pleasant 
We're not green 
We're just pleasant 
We’re not green 
We’ve decided to start melting our guns as a show of strength

Our wide eyes aren’t naive 
They’re a product of a kind of exhaustion 
Will there come a time when we believe 
The only way ahead is to put down our arms 
When we finally know 
The bitter consequence of not doing so 
There's such a price to pay 
For living this way 
Living this way 

We don’t invite crime 
We don’t invite crime 

Will you let one lost soul change what we stand for? 
I don’t think so

What a waste of time 
The Great Wall of China 
What a waste of time 
The Maginot line 
The Great Wall of China 
Что за трата времени 
Берлинская стена 
What a waste of time 
Die Berliner Mauer 
What a waste of time 
What a waste of time
