lyrics

Burnt by the Sun

I cannot believe it, the way we all
Stand up and fall,
they make you think you cannot believe it
We’re led one by one
Self destruction for some
Don't fly too low
Or get burned by the sun

These capitalists they are not pacifists
When they are selling our blood for their gold
When the wheels keep on turning
the bastards keep earning
and we only reap what we sow
And they'll come for the crops
And they will take the lot
Unless we fight for what we are owed
When the lies get imported
the truth gets distorted
And so many stories are told
We grow old
We can march through this struggle and protect one and other
We can stand in the streets, take back this land
Take back the food from their greedy hands
Greedy hands
They can chop down the trees
But what they forget is that we are seeds
That grow into ideas, it costs nothing to dream
No matter how hard they try they'll never bring us down

I cannot believe it, the way we all
Stand up and fall,
they make you think you cannot believe it
We’re led one by one
Self destruction for some
Don't fly too low
Or get burned by the sun


The morning starts the streets are bright
The echoes of the whispers flow
A warrior cries from the rooftops
And the seagulls all disperse
Flocks of gammon read the news
confused, bemused by the blinding truth
Unravelling the knot only to respin the yarn
The mind moves towards sanctuary
To find a place of calm
In these times it can't do any harm
An eclipse a total loss of freedom
A realisation then a loss of reason
Freedom comes in many forms
Collective views become the norm
No matter how hard they try they'll never bring us down
