about
It won't be the first song that was written because of a nice set of guitar effects (just ask the Edge) and probably won't be the last. From a lyrical point of view Matt has assured me that is not a song about terrorism. The man is just not that kind of literal. (David Robson)
lyrics
She’s no fear of flying, living, dying
Saboteurs unite – there’ll be no more lying
To her, to me – laughing, weeping
Saboteurs unite – whirlwind reaping
Alpha, Beta, we’re both dreaming
I want doubt and she wants meaning
Giving, taking, rising, falling
This is our…
Alpha, Beta, we’re still healing
No direction, we’re free-wheeling
Giving, taking, rising, falling
This is our calling
She’s no time for fighting, faking, crawling
Saboteurs unite – and yet she’s stalling
So stand well back – setting, dawning
Saboteurs unite – beware my warning
Saboteurs unite – there’ll be no more lying
To her, to me – laughing, weeping
Saboteurs unite – whirlwind reaping
Alpha, Beta, we’re both dreaming
I want doubt and she wants meaning
Giving, taking, rising, falling
This is our…
Alpha, Beta, we’re still healing
No direction, we’re free-wheeling
Giving, taking, rising, falling
This is our calling
She’s no time for fighting, faking, crawling
Saboteurs unite – and yet she’s stalling
So stand well back – setting, dawning
Saboteurs unite – beware my warning
