Lyrics The sea change Turin Brakes

The sea change

six billion backs against the wall
now do we walk or run
this puzzle's falling into place
once more around the sun
remember when you were a kid
those days were all so long
but if we don't do this
somebody else will

three billion backs against the wall
I pray(?) for everyone
we saw the changing at the sea
another thing was done
remember when you could rely
those days are all but gone
and if we don't do this
somebody else will
if we don't do this
somebody else will
somebody else will

one billion backs against the wall
at least I feel we're dry(?)
I(t) was an honour(?) to myself
this storm would pass me by
remember any(?) things I did
I knew I would survive
but if we don't do this
somebody else will
if we don't do this
somebody else will
somebody else will

one billion backs against the wall
now do we walk or run
one thousand backs against the wall
now do we walk or run
one hundred backs against the wall
now do we walk or run
it's just your back against the wall
now do you walk or run
remember when you were a kid
those days are all but gone
if we don't do this
nobody else will
if we don't do this
nobody else will
nobody else will
