The Land |
| He says it goes with the land and we can do nothing more |
| And no-one cans see what is wrong and is right |
| It goes with the land and it’s broken and sore |
| And it bleeds from inside and is tired of this long |
| Endless flight |
| But they never will learn |
| It never will break up and burn |
| It’s holding it close until we make our return |
| And it flows in the burns they’re diluted and stale |
| They fall weary down hillsides and cry for relief |
| It flows in the burns and they’re cloudy and pale |
| And the once foaming waters run tepid in sheer disbelief |
| It could have been healthy and strong |
| It could have been laughter and light |
| But the hope of a people holds on Shining and bright |
| And it blows with the wind and it hangs in the breeze |
| And it cuts through the trees like the slash of a blade |
| It blows with the wind you can smell the disease |
| And it rolls across mountains destroying the patterns |
| We’ve made |
