This Land

This land has made
Monsters of men
Widows of women
But for what end?
Blood's been spilled
By rebels and damned
The devil has held us
Within his hand

This land's forsaken
It's old and young
Left it's homeless
On the streets to roam
Hopes were shattered
Lost to despair
How many must die
Before this land cares?

Come now brothers
I speak to thee
Come now sisters
And be set free
You wayward pilgrims
You've been condemned
Far from heaven
Here in this land

Yeah

This land's been raided
By masters of wealth
They sell illusions
And steal your health
Control your leaders
Who fall and cower
On crippled backs
They build empires of power

Come now brothers
I speak to thee
Come now sisters
And be set free
You wayward pilgrims
You've been condemned
Far from heaven
Here in this land

Come now brothers
I speak to thee
Come now sisters
And be set free
Forced to wander
You've been condemned
Far from heaven
Here in this land
Far from heaven
Here in this land
Far from heaven
Here in this land
