No Angels

Bend the world backwards to get closer to the sound
Drifting through the streets of our city in a drought
What's on your mind when you're rolling round?

And all that we denied is now waiting
The city we survived might have needed saving but
After everything your trust never died

You say the money doesn't matter too much
You say your love for your people is enough
And you hold it in your heart

Against the truncheons and then weapons then you run
Down the streets you used to roll when you were young
And i ain't found you yet

What i warned you all the time
I could never solve your crimes
In this attitude of streets life
In the attitude of street life

Houses burning down
Like matches in the night
Getting colder under red skies
Over shoulders under train lines

It's when you look into the sky
It's the morning after the night
It's the joy you find in wasting time
Yeah you're calling from the other side

It's when you look into the sky
It's the morning after the night when you were in danger
You were in danger

You say the money doesn't matter too much
You say your love for your people is enough
And you hold it in your heart

Against the truncheons and then weapons then you run
Down the streets you used to roll when you were young
And I ain't found you yet

Yeah I'm still dreaming of a world that we choose
Keeping the whole of the world for the youth
Yeah there's a rhythm in the way that we move
And i ain't found you yet

Can't keep my mind from the motion
I'll raise this city from the ocean
Can't live in the lie of your protection

Your love
Your love gives me life
Your love
You're my love and your love just gives me light
