[Lyrics - Alan Duffy / Music - Steven Wilson]      The first thing that I saw as,   the fisherman smiled at me   Were empty people dressed in grey,   floating out to sea   The rain lashed down in darkness   A lizard blinked an eye   And time stopped in the silence   The small fish gave a cry      The next thing that I saw as,   things were fading fast   Were dreams of children's laughter,   smouldering to dust   The rain lashed down in darkness   A lizard blinked an eye   And time stopped in the silence   The small fish gave a cry      The last thing that I saw as, my life passed by   Were fields of empty people, laying down to die   The rain lashed down in darkness   A lizard blinked an eye   And time stopped in the silence   To watch the burning sky.
