Land
They buried me up to my knees in the cold December ground
The cold came up to get me
Blinding me in my land
Land.
In my land
Land.
I was landed on this moment
Then was given every chance
To form a healing circle
To doing the living dance of my land
Land.
My land
Land.
Water's not just a purity
Water's not just the key
It's the melody of panic
Feeds the life of mine throughout our land
Land.
Throughout our land
Land.
But every action has an opposite reaction
But every lie and equal and opposite lie
And every day is an accident waiting to happen
For every life there's ten more waiting in line
But every action has an opposite reaction
For every life there's ten more waiting in line
Cutting all the tall trees down
And I hope you understand
By the time your children come of age
They're gonna scream out, they're gonna moan
They're gonna cry for their
Land.
For their
Land.
Land.
The cold came up to get me
Blinding me in my land
Land.
In my land
Land.
I was landed on this moment
Then was given every chance
To form a healing circle
To doing the living dance of my land
Land.
My land
Land.
Water's not just a purity
Water's not just the key
It's the melody of panic
Feeds the life of mine throughout our land
Land.
Throughout our land
Land.
But every action has an opposite reaction
But every lie and equal and opposite lie
And every day is an accident waiting to happen
For every life there's ten more waiting in line
But every action has an opposite reaction
For every life there's ten more waiting in line
Cutting all the tall trees down
And I hope you understand
By the time your children come of age
They're gonna scream out, they're gonna moan
They're gonna cry for their
Land.
For their
Land.
Land.
