Avalon Lyrics by Blur

The Ballad of Darren (Deluxe)

2023

[Verse 1: Damon Albarn]
What's the point in building Avalon
If you can't be happy when it's done?
Who's in the race again?
Doesn't seem a long time since the last one
Wishing I could still make you happy
Torn apart somehow
Must be the waves we were carried on
Crashing on the shores of Avalon

[Chorus: Damon Albarn & Graham Coxon]
Then grey painted aeroplanes fly over
On their way to war (Aeroplanes)
And I'm dialing in, I'm dialing out
There's darkness at the door (Dialing out)
Then I overdo my dose and I don't even know I'm here anymorе
It's just something that comes to us all

[Verse 2: Damon Albarn]
What's the point in painting Avalon
If you can't bе present when it's done?
Who's in the vale again
Picking up the apples of Avalon?

[Chorus: Damon Albarn & Graham Coxon]
Then grey painted aeroplanes fly over
On their way to war (Aeroplanes)
And I'm dialing in, I'm dialing out
But the glass is still half full (Dialing out)
Then I overdo my dose and I don't even know I'm here anymore
It's just something that comes to us all
