(Music: Marillion Lyrics: Steve Hogarth & John Helmer)
2
It all began with the bright light
3
The bright light and the noise
4
The chaos of the senses and the scream of desire
5
Touching and being touched
6
A million loose ends to tie up
7
Ticking of the clock and the cradle rock
8
The colours stand still
9
And then they move around
10
Comin' in and out of focus upside down
11
Empty winter trees
12
How space feels Love of the soft ... flowers and the sky
13
One fine day
14
The chaos subsides
15
Bleeds into awareness
16
And a lifetime of surprise
17
The beauty of your mother's eyes
18
The pain when you fall
19
You drink it in and marvel at it all
20
But you never really figure it out
21
You get used to it
22
The babble of the family
23
And the dumb TV
24
Roar of the traffic and the thunder of jets
25
Chemicals in the water
26
Drugs in the food
27
The heat of the kitchen and the beat of the system
28
The attitude of authority
29
The laws and the rules
30
Hit me square in the face, first morning at school
31
The heroes and the zeroes
32
The first love of my life
33
When to kiss and to kick and to keep your head down when they're choosing the sides
34
I was never any good at it
35
I was terrified most of the time
36
I never got over it
37
I got used to it
38
Alone in the city at seventeen
39
With the hollow, the lonely
40
The drowning and the drowned
41
I was made to feel worthless
42
The wretched and the mean
43
Beat me up like a weapon
44
I can't run away from or find a way round
45
Holdin' on, holdin' on
46
The greed and the missiles
47
Exploding somewhere every day
48
Hideous dark secrets under the sea and in holes in the ground
49
The cold war's gone
50
Those bastards'll find us another one
51
They're here to protect you, don't you know?
52
So get used to it Get used to it!
53
The clash of religions
54
The loaded prayers
55
Information
56
The face of starvation and the state of the nation
57
The sense that it's useless
58
And the fear to try
59
Not believing the leaders, the media that feeds us
60
Living with the big lie
61
You get used to it
