Harrowdown Hill


Don't walk the plank like I did
You will be dispensed with
When you've become inconvenient
In the harrowdown hill
Where you went to school
That's where I am
That's where I'm lying down

Did I fall or was I pushed?
Did I fall or was I pushed?
And where's the blood?
And where's the blood?

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
To make it all right
So dry your eyes

We think the same things at the same time
We just cant do anything about it

So don't ask me
Ask the ministry
Don't ask me
Ask the ministry

We think the same things at the same time
There are so many of us
So you can't count

We think the same things at the same time
There are too many of us
So you can't count

Can you see me when I'm running?
Can you see me when I'm running?
Away from them

I can't take their pressure
No one cares if you live or die
They just want me gone
They want me gone

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
To make it all right
So dry your eyes

We think the same things at the same time
We just cant do anything about it

We think the same things at the same time
There are too many of us
So you can't count

It was a slippery slippery slippery slope
It was a slippery slippery slippery slope
I feel me slipping in and out of consciousness
I feel me slipping in and out of consciousness

들어볼 수 있는, 새롭게 싱글 커트된 The Eraser의 'Harrowdown Hill'입니다.

Harrowdown Hill은 2003년 7월, 영국 국방부 생화학무기전문가 David Kelly 박사의 시체가 발견된 곳입니다.
켈리박사는 BBC가 영국 정부의 이라크 대량살상무기(WMD) 정보가 조작됐다는 사실을 보도하는 과정에서 이를 증언한 것으로 알려졌었는데, 보도가 나간지 얼마 안되어 자살한 것으로 알려져 있었습니다. 하지만 많은 사람들이 여러가지 수상한 정황을 들며 그것이 과연 자살이었는지 의혹을 품고 있고, Thom 또한 이 죽음을 의문스럽게 생각하고 있답니다. 켈리박사의 죽음으로 인해 상처받은 이들을 위로하고, 이 사건에 대한 영국정부의 정직하지 못한 태도를 비판하기 위해서 이 곡을 썼다고 Thom이 밝혔습니다.
