Marillion This Strange Engine

blue pain Fades to a point where it doesn't fade It stayed Blue Stirred his red coat heart to this strange engine This love This love This inconvenient, blind, blood-diamond This

blue pain Fades to a point where it doesn't fade It stayed Blue Stirred his red coat heart to this strange engine This love This love This inconvenient, blind, blood-diamond This

blue pain Fades to a point where it doesn't fade It stayed Blue Stirred his red coat heart to this strange engine This love This love This inconvenient, blind, blood-diamond This

if only, if only, if only And the salt water runs Through your veins and your bones Telling you no not this way, not this way, not this way And you

catches singing loud The memory of water Your taste is blood and ecstasy But I must drink you all alone You're freckled like a speckled egg A dove, but this

There's a price you have to pay An accident of gender An accident of birth That holds me to this point of view This time and place on earth This

I'm the man of a thousand faces A little piece of me in every part I take I hold the tape for a thousand races A different point of view in every speech
