Your Possible Pasts Lyrics – The Final Cut – Pink Floyd

Home | Pink Floyd Lyrics / The Final Cut Lyrics / Your Possible Pasts Lyrics Your Possible Pasts Lyrics They flutter behind you your possible pasts,Some bright-eyed and crazy, some frightened and lost.A warning to anyone still in command[Cattle truck noises]“Ranks! Fire!”Of their possible future, to take care.In derelict sidings the poppies entwineWith cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time. Do you remember me? How we used to be?Do you think we should be closer? She stood in the doorway, the ghost of a smileHaunting her face like a cheap hotel sign.Her cold eyes imploring the men in their macsFor the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs.Stepping up boldly one put out his hand.He said, “I was just a child then, now I’m only a man.” Do you remember me? How we used to be?Do you think we should be closer? By the cold and religious we...

Home | Pink Floyd Lyrics / The Final Cut Lyrics / The Hero’s Return Lyrics The Hero’s Return Lyrics Jesus, Jesus, what’s it all about?Trying to clout these little ingrates into shape.When I was their age all the lights went out.There was no time to whine or mope about.And even now part of me flies overDresden at angels one five.Though they’ll never fathom it behind mySarcasm desperate memories lie. Sweetheart sweetheart are you fast asleep? Good.‘Cause that’s the only time that I can really speak to you.And there is something that I’ve locked awayA memory that is too painfulTo withstand the light of day. When we came back from the war the banners andFlags hung on everyone’s door.We danced and we sang in the street andThe church bells rang.But burning in my heartMy memory smolders onOf the gunners dying words on the intercom. The Final Cut was Roger Water’s final album with Pink...
