Gone, away from home
To find some kind of peace
A life we've never known
Never known
An easy way to live
In a small and serene place
Where to give and to receive
Men are screaming on the boat
As they leave you alone on the sea
Down the Gates
Will you mind the wreck?
Will you save your neck?
No
Down the Gates
Can you stand alone?
Can you warm a stone?
No
Started from the bottom
To try a new egress
The hope that never comes
Never comes
A different way to walk
In a huge and lofty town
Where to break free and to talk
Men are screaming on the boat
As they leave you alone on the sea
They feel ashamed to seem agree
As they leave you so far away
So far away
Oh
Down the Gates
Will you try to wake?
Will you hit the brake?
No
Down the Gates
Can you send a call?
Can you stop to crawl?
No
Down the Gates
Will you stand alone?
Will you choke a moan?
No
Down the Gates
Down the Gates
