MUSIC: Rattle That Lock by David Gilmour

CHEERING

# Rattle that

# Rattle that

# Rattle that lock

# Lose those chains

# Whatever it takes to break

# Gotta do it

# From the burning lake or the eastern gate

# You'll get through it

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Rattle that lock

# Let's go do it

# Have it all our way

# And go back to where we blew it

# And lose our heads along the way

# So long sin, au revoir chaos

# If there's a heaven, it can wait

# So long sin, au revoir chaos

# If there's a heaven

# Ah-ah-ah

# Ah-ah-ah

# Ooh

# Rattle that lock

# Ooh

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Ooh

# Rattle that lock

# Ooh

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# And all the other travellers

# Become phantoms to our eyes

# The furies and the revellers

# The fallen angels in disguise

# No discord, chance or rumour

# Is going to interrupt this place

# No discord, chance or rumour

# To interrupt this

# So let's get to it

# It's calling like a flame

# Through the darkness and the night

# The world's suspended on a golden chain

# No discord, chance or rumour

# Is going to interrupt this place

# No discord, chance or rumour

# To interrupt this

# Rattle that lock

# Rattle that lock

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Ah-ah-ah

# Ah-ah-ah

# Rattle that lock

# Rattle that lock

# Rattle that lock Lose those chains

# Ah-ah-ah

# Ah-ah-ah

# Rattle that lock. #

CHEERING

MUSIC: Faces Of Stone by David Gilmour

CHEERING

# Faces of stone that watched from the dark

# As the wind swirled around and you took my arm in the park

# Images framed, hung high in the trees

# And you talked of your youth

# But the years had turned dry as the leaves

# Your lover was gone, his replacement to hand

# And just what the difference was you could not understand

# In darkening grey

# We walked back through the streets

# Then you talked all night long of your childhood home by the sea

# And I, my disguise a mask chosen by you

# Believed every word I heard

# At least I think that's what I tried to do

# We sat on the roof, the night overflowed

# No more was said but I learned all I needed to know

# Your Hollywood smile shone a light on the past

# But it was the future that you held so tight to your heart. #

MUSIC: The Great Gig In The Sky by Pink Floyd

-RECORDING:

-And I am not frightened of dying.

Any time will do, I don't mind.

Why should I be frightened of dying?

There's no reason for it. You've got to go sometime.

# Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

# Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Hey, yeah

# Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah

...and disciplinary remains, mercifully.

-Yes, and I'm with you, Derek, this star nonsense.

-Mm.

-Now, which is it?

CLASSICAL MUSIC

CROWD SINGS ALONG # So, so you think you can tell

# Heaven from hell

# Blue skies from pain

# Can you tell a green field

# From a cold steel rail?

# A smile from a veil?

# Do you think you can tell?

# Did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?

# Hot ashes for trees

# Hot air for a cool breeze

# Cold comfort for change

# Did you exchange

# A walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? #

HE SINGS ALONG WITH GUITAR TUNE

# How I wish

# How I wish you were here

# We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl

# Year after year

# Running over the same old ground

# What have we found?

# The same old fears

# Wish you were here. #

DAVID GILMOUR WHISTLES

MUSIC: In Any Tongue by David Gilmour

# Home and done, it's just begun

# His heart weighs more

# More than it ever did before

# What has he done?

# God help my son

# Hey, stay a while

# I'll stay up

# No sugar is enough to bring sweetness to his cup

# I know sorrow tastes the same on any tongue

# Yeah, yeah, yeah

# How was I to feel it

# When a gun was in my hands

# And I'd waited for so long?

# How was I to see straight

# In the dust and blinding sun?

# Just a pair of boots on the ground

# On the screen the young men die

# The children cry

# In the rubble of their lives

# What has he done?

# God help my son

# Hey, stay a while

# I'll stay up

# The volume pumped right up

# But not enough to drown it out

# I hear Mama sounds the same in any tongue

# Yeah

# How am I to see you

# When my faith stands in the way

# And the wailing is long done?

# How am I to know you

# With a joystick in my hand

# When the call to arms has come? #

CHEERING

MUSIC: Coming Back To Life by Pink Floyd

CHEERING

# Where were you

# When I was burned and broken?

# While the days slipped by

# From my window watching

# And where were you

# When I was hurt and I was helpless?

# Because the things you say

# And the things you do surround me

# While you were hanging yourself on someone else's words

# Dying to believe in what you heard

# I was staring straight into the shining sun... #

CHEERING

# Lost in thought and lost in time

# While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted

# Outside the rain

# Fell dark and slow

# While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime

# I took a heavenly ride through our silence

# I knew the moment had arrived

# For killing the past and coming back to life

# I took a heavenly ride through our silence

# I knew the waiting had begun

# And I headed straight into the shining sun

# Ah-ah

# Ah-ah

# Ah-ah-ah. #

CHEERING

MUSIC: Sorrow by Pink Floyd

# The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land

# Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky

# A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers

# But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking

# He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise

# In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise

# He's chained forever to a world that's departed

# It's not enough, it's not enough

# His blood has frozen and curdled with fright

# His knees have trembled and given way in the night

# His hand has weakened at the moment of truth

# His step has faltered

# One world

# One soul

# Time pass

# The river roll

# And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication

# And silent replies that swirl invitation

# Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea

# A grim intimation of what is to be

# There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night

# And there's dust in my eyes that blinds my sight

# And there's a silence that speaks so much louder than words

# Of promises broken. #

MUSIC: Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd

CHEERING

# Hello

# Is there anybody in there?

# Just nod if you can hear me

# Is there anyone at home?

# Come on, now

# I hear you're feeling down

# Well, I can ease your pain

# Get you on your feet again

# Relax

# I'll need some information first

# Just the basic facts

# Can you show me where it hurts?

# There is no pain, you are receding

# A distant ship smoke on the horizon

# You are only coming through in waves

# Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

# When I was a child I had a fever

# My hands felt just like two balloons

# Now I've got that feeling once again

# I can't explain You would not understand

# This is not how I am

# I have become comfortably numb... #

CHEERING

# I have become comfortably numb

# OK, just a little pinprick

-# There'll be no more

-Ah

# But you may feel a little sick

# Can you stand up?

# I do believe it's working, good

# That'll keep you going through the show

# Come on, it's time to go

# There is no pain, you are receding

# A distant ship, smoke on the horizon

# You are only coming through in waves

# Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

# When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse

# Out of the corner of my eye

# I turned to look but it was gone

# I cannot put my finger on it now

# The child is grown The dream is gone

# And I have become comfortably numb... #
