Lyrics
Smoke in the park, everybody's here
It'll be the same tomorrow, it'll be the same next year
Days just gone past noon, the time's always the same
Everybody has the earth, everyone's looking for the flame
Smoke in the lungs, they must enjoy the taste
Never feel they've got enough, feel they've got all the time to waste
The teenagers of London, gather in their years
To smoke away the fears, of a future they've been told is uncertain
The teenagers of London, gather all their charm
To keep each other calm, same people, same place, same time
They don't seem to mind
Walk through the gate, see who's here today
Some of them I want to know, some I knew yesterday
Make my way through the faces, try to learn the names
Looking for the people who only exist inside my brain
Smoke fills the air, small talk falls to start
Lovely to see you again, remind me who you are
The teenagers of London, gather in their years
To smoke away the fears, of a future they've been told is uncertain
The teenagers of London, gather all their charm
To keep each other calm, same problems get worse Same smoky air
They don't seem to care
Will there be a time when I'm scared for you? Will there be a time when I'm begging you
Will there be a time when I grow up? Will there be a time when I'm throwing up
Will there be a time I walk across those tracks? Will there be a time I walk down that path
Will there be a time I walk alongside you? If I go there, will I make it through
Will there be a time when you have gone too far? Will there be a time when you aren't who you are
Will there be a time when I have drank too much? Will there be a time when I cannot stand up
Will there be a time when you can hardly breathe? And all that we have left are broken dreams
