Cameraman - Field Music

Passing by the men in line, in uniform

Did you recognize your dad when he tried to smile?

Mealtimes go by and nights are louder now

What did you hear outside that could change your life?

If someone could show you

Who else was there to see what you what you might have dreamed?

Carried through a dusty street then another

Did you wonder what you’d be doing tomorrow?

Crouching down to sleep, to hide while birds watch on high

Did you realise?

What did you find?

If someone could show you

Who else was there to see what you might have dreamed?

The cameraman, the flashing lenses, he comes and then he leaves

Was it you he memorised to take this life?

In the cloudless, freezing night you see the satellite

Spreading the news to boys like you but tucked up tight

Morning comes you stumble on and the cameraman appears

And wonders if you hear the click

Rising up
