[ti:A Bad Dream(Live)] [ar:Keane] [al:Keane Live 06-Apollo-Manchester UK-October 18, 2006] [00:00.00]Intro:reciting "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" by W. B. Yeats [00:11.04]I know that I shall meet my fate [00:13.59]Somewhere among the clouds above; [00:17.43]Those that I fight I do not hate, [00:20.58]Those that I guard I do not love; [00:23.75]My country is Kiltartan Cross, [00:26.09]My countrymen Kiltartan’s poor, [00:28.43]No likely end could bring them loss [00:31.41]Or leave them happier than before. [00:33.25]Nor law, nor duty bade me fight, [00:36.32]Nor public men, nor cheering crowds, [00:39.29]A lonely impulse of delight [00:43.07]Drove to this tumult in the clouds; [00:45.21]I balanced all, brought all to mind, [00:48.94]The years to come seemed waste of breath, [00:51.33]A waste of breath the years behind [00:53.94]In balance with this life, this death. [01:00.50]from "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death" By William Butler Yeats [01:04.50]cue the music [01:21.28]Why do I have to fly [01:27.42]Over every town up and down the line? [01:34.59]I'll die in the clouds above [01:39.90]And you that I defend, I do not love [01:47.14]I wake up, it's a bad dream [01:51.41]No one on my side [01:54.90]I was fighting [01:57.29]But I just feel too tired [02:01.64]to be fighting [02:03.98]Guess I'm not the fighting kind [02:14.56]Where will I meet my fate? [02:20.53]Baby I'm a man, I was born to hate [02:27.50]And when will I meet my end? [02:33.35]In a better time you could be my friend [02:40.05]I wake up, it's a bad dream [02:44.75]No one on my side [02:48.13]I was fighting [02:50.63]But I just feel too tired [02:54.86]to be fighting [02:57.40]Guess I'm not the fighting kind [03:01.39]Wouldn't mind it [03:03.77]If you were by my side [03:08.28]But you're long gone [03:10.79]Yeah you're long gone now [03:24.19]Where do we go? [03:30.68]I don't even know [03:37.49]My strange old face [03:41.99]And I'm thinking about those days [03:48.72]And I'm thinking about those days [04:23.75]I wake up, it's a bad dream [04:28.31]No one on my side [04:31.66]I was fighting [04:33.82]But I just feel too tired [04:37.95]to be fighting [04:40.80]Guess I'm not the fighting kind [04:44.98]Wouldn't mind it [04:47.38]If you were by my side [04:51.65]But you're long gone [04:53.99]Yeah you're long gone now [05:00.37]Yeaaaaaaaaaaah [05:05.06] [05:57.28]
