Autobiography Of A Nation |
| We have burned their villages and all the people in them died |
| We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal |
| All the dreams they had we kill |
| Still we all sleep sound tonight |
| Is this what you wanted to hear? |
| We erased all their images and dance |
| And replaced them with borders and flags |
| At the top of this timeline you’ll remember |
| This is the lipstick on the collar |
| And in my own life I’ve seen it in the mirror |
| sometimes at the cost of others hopes |
| So write these words back down inside |
| That’s where you need it the most |
| and without conviction of heart you will never feel it at all |
| Yeah, we all dance to the same beat when we we’re marching |
| Yeah, the TV tells us everythign we need to know |
| And this scene is painting in all the fashions of the moment |
| And history is all the same |
| Everything you say you stole |
| Every dream you dream you bought |
