The Spectres - Years of Lead Lyrics

Do you ever stop and think
Why your life is over when it never quite began
Do you ever really know?
With hope or ideology you'll never walk alone

Resurrect the tribal wars now
Like the years of lead before now
Can the left win back the poor now?
If it's so easy then these crocodile tears would all be gone and although,
In the end you've got yourself to blame
And maybe Richie Edwards reappears tomorrow,
In some Cardiff bar like nothing's changed

Could you ever take control?
Burn your bridges to the past and let the future go
Could you ever really know?
Hope was all they wanted and it's worse than before

Resurrect the tribal wars now
Like the years of lead before now
Can the Left win back the poor now?
If it's so easy then these crocodile tears would all be gone and although
In the end you've got yourself to blame
Maybe there'll be tears but there'll be no more sorrow
In the end you're all that you can change.
