The Final Cut

Two Suns In The Sunset

Track B6
 
[Verse 1] In my rearview mirror, the sun is going down Sinking behind bridges in the road And I think of all the good things That we have left undone And I suffer premonitions, confirm suspicions Of the holocaust to come [Verse 2] The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in Gives way and suddenly it's day again The sun is in the east Even though the day is done Two suns in the sunset, hmph Could be the human race is run [Verse 3] Like the moment when the brakes lock And you slide towards the big truck ("Oh no!") You stretch the frozen moments with your fear (*scream*) And you'll never hear their voices ("Daddy, Daddy!") And you'll never see their faces You have no recourse to the law anymore [Verse 4] And as the windshield melts and my tears evaporate Leaving only charcoal to defend Finally, I understand The feelings of the few Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend We were all equal in the end [Saxophone Solo] "…and now the weather. Tomorrow will be cloudy with scattered showers spreading from the east… With an expected high of 4000 degrees Celsius"
