lyrics

Who will ever know what really happened here
If we silence every voice and nurture only fear
You can take what you want or you can give what they need
Open arms and protection or an empty house to grieve

It’s not psychosomatic
It’s not only the callow
It’s not just psychosomatic
Not all of the sorrow
All of the sorrow

Born to an island with the stars aligned in your favour
Free to ride the luck of the gods, not waiting for a saviour
You took the name of your father, wore the patience of your mother
Never held in chains, not beholden to another

You may not see it coming but suddenly it could be
Too late to recover when it’s a crime to disagree
Your choices written on a wall in echos of 1984
Freedom an illusion in spite of every war
