[00:00.076]The Greatest Living Englishman - David Sylvian
[00:11.810]And the love that he engendered
[00:16.188]Would never be enough
[00:20.067]For him to feel alive
[00:24.019]Warm and tender
[00:29.739]He'd shut himself outside
[00:53.803]Not a fake or a sham
[00:56.235]But dug in deep and fighting
[01:01.387]The world could not embrace a man
[01:06.379]With so much self in his writing
[01:28.514]And he was never gonna be
[01:34.243]The greatest living englishman
[01:42.554]He had ideas above his station
[01:48.675]Minor virtues go unmentioned
[02:03.607]Little england you fit like a straight jacket
[02:07.976]Hemmed by the genius of others
[02:13.871]He said
[02:16.263]'To conquer the world is not to the trace
[02:22.767]Remove even the shadow of the memory of your face'
[02:35.494]A grey of no significance
