"Through The Barricades"
Mother doesn't know where love has gone
She says it must be youth that keeps us feeling strong
I see it in her face that's turned to ice
And when she smiles she shows the lines of sacrifice
And now I know what they're saying
As our sun begins to fade
And we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Father made my history
He fought for what he thought would set us somehow free
He taught me what to say in school
I learned it off by heart but now that's torn in two
And now I know what they're saying
In the music of the parade
And we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Born on different sides of life
But we feel the same and feel all of this strife
So come to me when I'm asleep
And we'll cross the line and dance upon the streets
And now I know what they're saying
As the drums begin to fade
And we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
Oh, turn around and I'll be there
Well there's a scar right through my heart but I'll bare it again
Oh, I thought we were the human race
But we were just another borderline case
And the stars reach down and tell us
That there's always one escape
Oh, I don't know where love has gone
And in this troubled land desperation keeps us strong
Friday's child is full of soul
With nothing left to lose, there's everything to go
And now I know what they're saying
It's a terrible beauty we've made
So we make our love on wasteland
And through the barricades
And now I know what they're saying
As our hearts go to their graves
And we made our love on wasteland
And through the barricades

"A través de les barricades"
Mare no sap cap a on l'amor se n'ha anat
Ella diu que deu ser joventut que ens fa sentir forts
Ho veig en la seva cara que s'ha tornat glaç
I quan somriu, exhibeix les línies de sacrifici
I ara ho sé el que estan dient
Mentre el nostre sol comença a minvar
I fèiem l'amor sobre terra erma
I a través de les barricades
Pare feia la meva història
Lluitava pel que pensava que ens faria comsevulla lliure
M'ensenyava el que per a dir a l'escola
Memoritzava tot però ara tot està estripat i trencat
I ara ho sé el que estan dient
En la música de la parada
I fèiem l'amor sobre terra erma
I a través de les barricades
Nascuts en diferents costats de la vida
Però sentim el mateix i sentim tot aquest desig
Doncs, vés-hi cap a mi mentre estic adormit
I creuarem la línia i ballarem en els carrers
I ara ho sé el que estan parlant
Mentre els tambors comencen a perdre's
I fèiem l'amor sobre terra erma
I a través de les barricades
Oh, gira't i jo seré aquí
Bé, hi ha una cicatriu just a través del meu cor però em tornaré a despullar un cop més
Oh, vaig pensar que nosaltres seríem l'espècie humana
Però érem només un altre cas borderline
I les estrelles s'estenen i ens diuen
Que hi ha sempre una escapada
Oh, no ho sé per a on amor se n'ha anat
I en aquest país conflictiu la desesperació ens manté fort
El nen de divendres está ple d'ànima
Amb res més a perdre, hi ha tot per començar
I ara ho sé el que estan dient
És una bellesa terrible que hem creat
Doncs solem fer l'amor sobre terra erma
I a través de les barricades
I ara ho sé el que estan dient
Mentre els nostres cors van cap a les seves tombes
I fèiem l'amor sobre terra erma
I a través de les barricades
