Turn, turn away, turn away, turn away 
Silent face in pain, this face in erased, erase this faith 
Bones getting old, getting old, bones old 
										
Arms stretched out wide, this outstretched sky, this burning sky 
They want us all to lie awake 
They want us all to love with hate 
They want us all to fade away 
And I want them all to stop 
Hands covered eyes, covered eyes, close your eyes 
Silent face in pain, this face erased, erase this faith 
We're standing here, we're not stuck here, we're not stuck here 
You, you want a war, you've got your war, you still want more 
They want us all to lie awake 
They want us all to love with hate 
They want us all to fade away 
I want them all to go away 
I want a lie 
I want a lie 
I want a lie 
I want a lie 
I want a lie 
I want a lie
