lyrics

The truth terrifies me – beyond belief
‘Cos the lies aren’t any worse
Diverted by conspiracies
Less evil than what’s proved to be
You’d pray for races of ETs come colonise the earth

Who is elected – to serve and protect
Remember ’89?
When Salman Rushdie fled the streets
Now French cartoonist in their seats
Are shot for not being free to speak
Now blood obscures the line

And we cry
And we hold our head up so high
To realise that nothing ever changes…

Waves of sadness wash over me
As a reminder how it used to be
As everything this too will pass eventually
So let these blue waves wash over me

I’m scared of religion – totalitarian
The bible is the gun
Revolution is a buzz galore
While the threat of a real life civil war
Coming to your door, is being ignored
Because that shit, that just isn’t fun

And I’d rather die than be – tied to the -lie
That for this flag I’d give my life
I’d take a gun to intolerance
I’d kill in a war to take down the banks
And I’d die for peace, given half a chance,
And leave this world alive.
