Christopher Columbus |
I dream of freedom |
See no rhyme |
In your reason to resist |
Resist the power |
By the hour |
Ask the people to assist |
In isolation we were beautiful |
Cultured and content |
Civilization bought diseases |
Now we breathe your devil scent |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
After 1492 |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
You had a lot to answer fortunately |
Me and you are through |
Hope over reason |
The last bastion |
Of division and dissent |
Rebuilding bridges |
Climb the ridges |
Declarations of intent |
If we could harness all the firepower |
Turn it on itself |
We could shine brightly |
Phosphorescent |
Seize the life upon it’s shelf |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
After 1492 |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
You had a lot to answer fortunately |
Me and you are through |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
After 1492 |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
You had a lot to answer for |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
After 1492 |
And just like Christopher Columbus |
You had a lot to answer fortunately |
Me and you are through |
