Plot
The film is set in 1905, in a time of feverish revolutionary underground activity in Poland partitioned between three neighbours. All the characters are committed anarchists. The bomb maker puts an invention together to place it at the disposal of young inexperienced terrorists fighting against Tsarist oppression. The story follows the passing of this bomb from anarchist to anarchist as several attempts are made on the life of Tsarist governor general, until, at the end, it is effectively and harmlessly defused by a bomb expert. The presence of the bomb has a destroying effect on all of the Polish revolutionaries, they either die or breakdown.

Just Older
Hey, man, it's been a while
Do you remember me?
When I hit the streets I was 17
A little wild, a little green
I've been up and down and in between
After all these years and miles of memories
I'm still chasing dreams
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old -- just older
It's good to see your face
You ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air
When we took on the world
When we were young and brave
We got secrets that we'll take to the grave
And we're standing here shoulder to shoulder
I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old -- just older
I'm not old enough to sing the blues
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose
Well, I look in the mirror
I don't hate what I see
There's a few more lines staring back at me
Now the night has grown a little bit colder
Hey man, gotta run
You take care
If you see coach T. Tell him I've cut my hair
I've kept my faith, i still believe im just...ha
I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old -- just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It' s not old -- just older
I grow older.
Getting wiser, everyday.
'Cause when I fall down now
I don't jump back up.
I let 'em count to eight.
Slower.
Getting slower.
I have lost a step or two.
It's time to face the facts.
Buy a pair of plaid slacks
'n sit around like old guys do.
'Cause when I go out late at night
To have a beer
I sit and wonder why my friends aren't here.
Is this a joke on me?
They're all home playing with their families.
I am the oldest person in this bar
And I am drinking with children on a field trip to observe me in
My habitat.
Quiet.
It's so quiet
In my house
When I get home
I got three mean fish,
And a yellow dog.
I do not live alone.
When I close my eyes at night
I feel so small
Like I never really loved at all.
'Cause if I did I'd have some proof.
Another life or two beneath my roof.
It's just a bad recurring dream I have
When I suspect I have misspent my youth.
Could have fooled me too.
Childish.
It's so childish
To resist the dying light.
But I'm still the same.
Some things never change.
I should have known
It seemed too easy
You were there
And I was breathing blue
Strange don't you think I'm looking older?
But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger
You have yet to know
Well, you're out of time I'm letting go
You'll be fine well that much I know
You're out of time I'm letting go
I'm not the man you want
I should have known
It seemed so easy
You were there
I thought I needed you
Strange don't you think I'm looking older?
But something good has happened to me
Change is a stranger
Who never seems to show
Well, you're out of time I'm letting go
You'll be fine
(Or maybe you won't)
You're out of time I'm letting go
I'm not the man that you want
I never should have looked back in your direction
I know that just the same old fights again, baby
These are wasted days without affection
Said woman, look lovely to me, but your body no ready
And if that you're thinking you're ready to give it a try
And maybe, you might want to wait before you give yourself away
Or maybe, the reasons you're willing are burning inside
And if you say that you want, and girl, you know you need it
And say that you don't want to be caught between someone else and your love
But till you're older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
So when the weekend come, yes you'll have some fun
Then you'll drink some wine and you'll drink some rum
But before too long, when your pressure's gone
You know that you're waiting for someone to come, yeah
Let me know, say, when you get-go you let go
Let me know, said, if you're willing to let go
witchy woman's what she wanted
Said, if you got the body you should flaunt it, flaunt it
And if you say that you want, and girl, you know you need it
And say that you don't want to be caught between someone else and your love
But till you're older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
And if you say that you want, and girl, you know you need it
And say that you don't want to be caught between someone else and your love
But till you're older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
A little older now, you've got to get a little bit older now
Your nails are dirty from the city
I catch you thinking it's a pity
You ever had that bluebird tottoo on your shoulder
Sunlight spelling summer dresses
Across your Judes, across your Tesses
But the evenings always turn out to be colder
Chorus:
Older... Do the days that come now fly by?
Older... Does the blood that boiled now run dry?
Older... Still too much to be done to sit and just
wonder why
There's a box you keep the past in
You keep it locked, you keep it lasting
Your mother's photograph, the things you never told her
A child demanding your attention
A quarrel needs your intervention
The words you use surprise you when you scold her
Chorus
When your youth burned like a coal
You said you wanted to make it white-hot
But in the hard sell of your soul you got stamped out
When your youth burned like a coal
You said you wanted to make it white-hot
But in the hard sell of your soul you got stamed out
Like an ingot
Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son?
Oh, where have you been, my darlin' young one?
I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains
I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways
I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son?
And, what did you see, my darling young one?
I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it
I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin'
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh what did you hear, my blue-eyed son?
And what did you hear, my darling young one?
I heard the sound of a thunder that roared out a warnin'
I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
I heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin'
I heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
I heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin'
I heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter
I heard the sounds of a clown who cried in the alley
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son?
And who did you meet, my darling young one?
I met a young child beside a dead pony
I met a white man who walked a black dog
I met a young woman whose body was burnin'
I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow
I met one man who was wounded in love
I met another man who was wounded in hatred
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son?
And what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin'
I'll head for the depths of the deepest dark forest
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty
Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
And the executioner's face is always well hidden
Where hunger is ugly and souls are forgotten
Where black is the color, where none is the number
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it
And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it
Then I'll stand on the ocean until' I start sinkin'
But I'll know my song well before I start singin'
And it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard, and it's a hard
Older
It seems like each day you get older
And each day the world becomes colder
In a cynical way
Time
Do you feel like you've missed your time?
I feel like I've missed mine
And I'm losing my way
I think it's time you realized
For I can see it in your eyes
You seem convinced that you will live forever
Over
I feel like my life has blown over
I keep looking over my shoulder
And seeing nothing but grey
It's a crime
Don't it seem like such a crime
I wish I had more time
But I'm drifting away
Older
You see it's like I told you
You've gained the right to grow older
By living today
I think it's time you realized
For I can see it in your eyes
Dance to sound or delight
Hold these parts with her
All her love in your hands
Could be mine forever
Taking it slowly now
Common affairs
Are weaker than you know
I'm older
And maybe wiser
I'm old enough to
Save something
Save, something
Save, something, yeah
Save, something
Climb the cliff, Tower over all
And falling water, falling waterfall
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
It's time to dry off tattered overalls
Impatient waiting, Way to hide a fall
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
After all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
Don't want to understand why you never get older
And after all my plans
They melt into the sand
Yeah you will be there on my mind through all
I'm getting older
And I'm still trying to find my way
Airs getting colder
I live my life I'm not afraid
I live my life
In disarray
But I live my life
I'll come around to see you
Even when you're sitting by yourself
When my fears bleed through
I picture you with someone else
I picture you
With someone else
I swear you'll never be
I see it in my dreams
I'm getting older
And I'm still trying to find my way
Been going nowhere
I live my life I'm not ashamed
I'll live my life I'm not ashamed
I swear you'll never be
Alone, Yeah
Alone, Yeah
Alone, Yeah
I'm getting older
And I'm still trying to find my way
Airs getting colder
I live my life
I'm not afraid
I live my life
I'm not ashamed
I swear you'll never be
Sitting all by myself, no hope left but yet I hope for help.
Knowing I just can't see the light you want so deep inside of me.
And I feel I'm growing black.
So, oh.
I know there's so much more.
But while I'm still here, trying with me, just remember that you're still
With me.
And nothing ever goes the way it should but baby, I'm still here... Alone.
Always.
I'm still here.
Always.
Knowing all's not lost, yeah I'm here but I've paid the cost.
You don't notice me, the words I say will not break free, from deep inside
Of me.
So, oh.
That's how I see.
But while I'm still here, trying with me, nothing ever- that you're still
With me.
That nothing ever goes the way it should but baby, I'm still here. Alone,
Alone.
All I wanted was to live without the middleman.
All you needed was a chance to say, "I told you so".
When you're cold and battered all you want is to know you matter to someone.
And I had to throw away all the plans we made and now these days.
With marks against my shoulders I feel like I'm older than I am.
All I want right now is to be my own child.
Do you think it makes me a better man just to know I can be alone a while?
And I had to throw away all the plans we made and now these days.
With marks against my shoulders I feel like I'm older than I am.
