World Citizen (I Won't Be Disappointed) - David Sylvian
What happened here?

The butterfly has lost its wings

The air's too thick to breathe
And there's something in the drinking water.

The sun comes up

The sun comes up and you're alone
Your sense of purpose come undone
The traffic tails back to the maze on 101

And the news from the sky
Is looking better for today

In every single way
But not for you

World citizen

World citizen

It's not safe

All the yellow birds are sleeping
Cos the air's not fit for breathing
It's not safe

Why can't we be

Without beginning, without end?
Why can't we be?

World citizen

World citizen

And if I stop

And talk with you awhile
I'm overwhelmed by the scale

Of everything you feel

The lonely inner state emergency

I want to feel

Until my heart can take no more
And there's nothing in this world I wouldn't give

I want to break

The indifference of the days
I want a conscience that will keep me wide awake

I won't be disappointed

I won't be disappointed

I won't be.

I saw a face

It was a face I didn't know
Her sadness told me everything about my own

Can't let it be

When least expected there she is
Gone the time and space that separates us

And I'm not safe

I think I need a second skin

No, I'm not safe

World citizen

World citizen

I want to travel by night

Across the steppes and over seas
I want to understand the cost

Of everything that's lost
I want to pronounce all their names correctly

World citizen

World citizen

I won't be disappointed

I won't be.

She doesn't laugh

We've gone from comedy to commerce
And she doesn't feel the ground she walks upon

I turn away

And I'm not sleeping well at night

And while I know this isn't right
What can you do?
