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 |
