LYRICS (See Below)

like a movie

flickering in blue and grey

like a movie

you can’t take your eyes away

1. here's a man in the nose of a beast

a magic camera on his eye

they're not men he sees before him

just pixels floating by

his eyes narrow on the target

his finger is the boss

seven men go to the dust they came from

underneath his cross

like a movie

2. and here's a man on an aeroplane

his eyes are warm, his eyes are closed

weary from too much seeing

, from 10 years on this road

they took his son, they took his freedom

took away his space to think

they took his walls and moved them closer

they pushed him to the brink

like a movie flickering in blue and grey

like a movie

betrayal's only one frame away

3. and here's a hawk, in front of an eagle

three colours tattooed on it's chest

his eyes are flint, his heart is granite

cos uncle knows what's best

there’s talk of a man who’s said too much

talk of a man who’s sealed his fate

talk of a bounty for the one who brings

his head upon a plate

like a movie

4. and now here's a man in a tiny cell

his tired face is gaunt and pale

he walks ten thousand steps each day

the santiago trail

his hair is white, the spider’s eyes were black

the mighty web was a thing of awe

he went in deep, he couldn’t come back

but he showed us what he saw

like a movie

flickering in blue and grey

like a movie

dignity will hold no sway

and when the dawn breaks, and the mist clears

you can watch the final scene, if you dare

one man in front of an army, all alone

and his man, what’s he going to do now?

and what about you, what are you going to do now?

are you going to sit there, and keep on watching?

cos if we all got up we could stop this movie

don't you think it's time we stopped this movie?

like a movie

flickering in blue and grey

like a movie

we can’t let it end this way
