Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Say goodbye to Mum and Dad
Say hello to all the ghosts of Leningrad
Everything is up for grabs
Go tell all your friends society's gone mad
[PreChorus]
God is wise and Jesus loves us all
[Chorus]
It's no life, this island of fear
When tomorrow comes
We'll brave the wild frontier
Get out this place
Inside, outside, nowhere to hide
When tomorrow comes
We'll face the great divide
[Verse 2]
Say goodbye to Mum and Dad
Say goodbye to what we had
It's a dusty road of faded photographs
Wipe that welcome from the mat
Walk the dog and feed the cat
Things are broken and they're never coming back
[PreChorus]
God is wise and Jesus loves us all
[Chorus]
It's no life, this island of fear
When tomorrow comes
We'll brave the wild frontier
Get out this place
Inside, outside, nowhere to hide
When tomorrow comes
We'll face the great divide
