purity

• impurity'den bir new model army şarkısı:
  
  the rains move in eastwards, in waves of succession
  drawing lines of grey across the sky
  with history just as close as a hand on the shoulder
  in hunger and impatience we cry
  the battle against corruption rages in each corner
  there must be something better, something pure
  and the call it is answered from the caves to the cities
  come the dealers of salvation on earth
  we've seen the restless children at the head of the columns
  come to purify the future with the arrogance of youth
  nothing is as cruel as the righteousness of innocents
  with automatic weapons and a gospel of the truth
  ch: revolution for ever, succession of the seasons
  within the blood of nature, all raised to rot and die
  this purity is a lie
  
  now immaculate conception in sterilised laboratories
  how the vanity goes on
  or in the message of the preacher with his morals and obsessions
  the wars that we wage upon ourselves
  purity is a virtue, purity is an angel
  purity is for madmen to make fools of us all
  so forgive yourself my friend, all this will soon be over
  what happened here tonight is nothing at all
  ch: revolution for ever . . .
  
  i will always see brendan at that broken down piano
  his fingers thick and red, shaking on the keys
  battered by the years of alcohol and working
  still playing with the faith that never leaves
  so sit us down, buy us a drink, tell us a good story
  sing us a song we know to be true
  i don't give a damn that i never will be worthy
  fear is the only enemy that i still know
