The Minaret |
| It’s the end of spring |
| And light hangs on |
| Dripping over geraniums |
| And humming bird wings |
| In the blaze of summer |
| We’ll tap our weapons out |
| To the cadence of a melody |
| They sang at Normandy |
| It won’t be |
| The same the again |
| And we’ll just walk away |
| It’s the end |
| We crossed on the ridge |
| And cut their women down |
| I climbed up on the minaret |
| And occupied the town |
| They scattered in the woods |
| To gather up their strength |
| Dripping blood on the road |
| And oh how the animals looked on |
| They all see how we’ve changed |
| All the rules of the game |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| And it paralyzed me |
| An eye for an eye |
| Was a way to limit revenge |
| We’ve done away with all of that |
| Read how it all begins |
| It was written years before |
| Same name, same war |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| I can see both sides |
| And it paralyzed me |
| Inside |
