about

Written & recorded by Wm. Gorman

lyrics

State your name, your age, put your finger to the ink
This won't hurt that much, but probably more than you think
Always the silent sinner in the midst
Is pocketing his tight clenched fists

All quiet on the border
All clear on the streets of Pompeii
Listen up, this is why we have stories to tell
It's ok, it's fine, oh well

What do you say to those people who know they're always right?
Static on the radio, I listen every night
Don't try to describe it, it's better left unsaid
By the voices inside your head

All quiet on the border
All clear on the streets of Pompeii
Listen up, this is why we have stories to tell
It's ok, it's fine, it's hell

are you real or are you layers of flesh and steel are you real?

All quiet on the border
All clear on the streets of Pompeii
Listen up, this is why we have stories to tell
It's ok, it's fine, all's well
