Silver Age - Pet Shop Boys

The prospect of sun

Page after page

Of black and white portraits

A silver age

Scent of a sunset

On a stage

Difficult music

A modern age

The palace is still

A frozen cage

Bayonets gleam

A silver rage

Earthquakes predicted

And someday soon

A total eclipse

Of the sun and the moon

Earthquakes predicted

And someday soon

A total eclipse

Of the sun and the moon
