lyrics

Labels fading
Leaders undone
Watching the waiting
Old School out-run

Some of them tell you it’s a lifeline
Some of them tell you it’s a key

Our genie in a bottle
Our castle in the sky
The blood upon the ground
It’s near
(In this Nation)

Fires in the open
Ashes on the land
The burning of the young
It’s near
(In this Nation)

Tribal hatred
One side unclean
Wounded pieces
Moving unseen

Photo in family album
Somewhere on the beaches then
He was gone while she was waiting
Lavender and mourning

Was it all for love?
Where are we?

Undecided, half undone
Some great weakness, this way comes
Laughing at the families
Held behind the wire

Shirts of black will march once more
Walking through an open door
Talking of our destiny
Welcoming the fire
