Lyrics Damon Albarn – Father’s Daughter’s Son

If there’s only one day left, given at dawn
Someone’s gonna sing of the pages torn
Out of the book tied in a knot, all forgiven

Strong Titan, how about you

I was caught in the sights of Venus at night
She came and put her clothes in me
Carried me away through mirrored rooms
On the way to the violet seas

Lord, you better stand up
Don’t let yourself down
It’s over and the deed is done
Down in the house by Gallow’s Green
For a father’s daughter’s son

Learning to live with a broken guard
Put it in my heart and let it sing «Lord»
There are more of us here than there ever were here before

And you may not like it, you may disagree
But tides still pull you into the sea
There are more of us here than there ever were here before

I was caught in the sights of Venus at night
She came and put her clothes in me
Carried me away through mirrored rooms
On the way to the violet seas

Well Lord, there are so many of us
Trying to let go
It’s over and the deed is done
Down in the house by Gallow’s Green
For a father’s daughter’s son
