Echo & the Bunnymen

Echo & the Bunnymen are an English post-punk band, formed in Liverpool in 1978.

Realistically, it's hard to dig it all, too happily
But I can see it's not always that real to me
A funny thing is always a funny thing
And though sadly things just get in the way

Open to suggestion
Falling over questions

Hopefully but that's as well as maybe
A shaking hand won't transmit all fidelity
And your golden smile would shame a politician
Typically, I'll apologize next time

Bonds will break and fade
Go snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you

Bonds will break and fade
Go snapping all in two
The lies that bind the tie
Come sailing out of you

Show of strength, is all you want
You can never set it down
Guts and passion
Those things you can't even set down
Don't ever set down, won't ever set down

Hey, I came in right on cue
One is me and one is you
Hey, I came in right on cue
One is me and one is you
