Man


We press on and on
Funny how the futures always waiting for you
When the day has gone
We hide away

Shadows that stalk you
The wind that calls your name
Voices in the thunder
Dont understand what theyre saying

We build monuments
To celebrate our glorious dead now
Iron and cement
Above their tombs

We cast out our nets
Drag up the struggling contents surely
We must not forget
That hunger looms

Shadows that stalk you
The wind that calls your name (shadows that stalk you)
Shadows that stalk you
Child cries and he learns
And doubt returns

In the darkest hours
We restle with our ancestors
We resist their power
The power of being

In the coldest night
Huddled round the dying embers
Praying for the light
Might set us free

Fingers that soothe you
Shadows that stalk you (the jokes that make you sleep)
Intricate harness
Shadows that stalk you (the harvest that you reap)

Man stalls, he flies
Man falls and he rise

We press on and on
Funny how the futures always waiting for you
When the day has gone
We hide away

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Church is an Australian rock band known for their psychedelic sound. Formed in Sydney in 1978, they are considered one of the most influential bands of the Australian post-punk movement. They achieved international popularity in the 1980s with albums like "After Everything" and "Priest = Aura". Their music is characterized by dark and introspective atmospheres, evocative guitar riffs, and poetic lyrics. The band has gone through several stylistic phases throughout their long career, exploring elements of synth-pop, shoegaze, and ambient. Some of their most representative songs include "Under the Milky Way", "Metropolis", "Tantalized", and "The Unguarded Moment". Steve Kilbey, the frontman and main songwriter, is known for his melodic voice and introspective lyrics.
