lyrics

The country we knew held high on pedestals
has been burning proud and bright since i was young
don’t you tell me about freedom, don’t tell me about hope
because the illusion of freedom means nothing at all

Gather round children they lied to you
that we must tear up the land just to pay our dues
and no-one will suffer and no one will lose
so if you’re tired of writing fiction why not tell us the truth

Grab yourself some rope and pull a little tighter
if you won’t budge then we won’t either
I guess this is what fighting fire with fire is all about
cos its the air that I breathe and my foot is in the soil
how could you think we’d be so goddamn loyal

So when get what you need once you’ve raped the land
will you call us for help when there is nothing left
you ha the supply and you filled the demand
when you think about profit safety is meaningless

And what about the children who cannot re act
to a future of struggle for which they didn’t ask
of the waste beneath the lakes and the ruined habitats
so the sun the winds and rains will fight back

Grab yourself some rope and pull a little tighter
if you won’t budge then we won’t either
I guess this is what fighting fire with fire is all about.
Cos its the air that I breathe and my foot is in the soil
how could you think we’d be so goddamn loyal
