These Streets
This Land, once rich & green, now a distant memory
These streets, battle torn, far from peace
Since screams echoed Dublin city streets
Easter 1916, scenes of obscenity haunt our dreams
The deceased, fall on all sides seek comity the
Comedy is that commonly we breathe, we love, we need unity
And ask yourself, who you're willing to be
Unmask yourself and ask what if, what if it was me
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
Profound pride found
Idolizing through tear filled eyes
How mother's yearn us to learn from the past, alas
Here we are slipping fast
Don't break a man, instead shake his hand
What will it take to awaken mercurial man
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
These streets, battle torn, far from peace
Since screams echoed Dublin city streets
Easter 1916, scenes of obscenity haunt our dreams
The deceased, fall on all sides seek comity the
Comedy is that commonly we breathe, we love, we need unity
And ask yourself, who you're willing to be
Unmask yourself and ask what if, what if it was me
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
Profound pride found
Idolizing through tear filled eyes
How mother's yearn us to learn from the past, alas
Here we are slipping fast
Don't break a man, instead shake his hand
What will it take to awaken mercurial man
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
We've seen, what starvation can make people do
We've seen, desperation turn people into, sick minded fools
With innovative creations so cruel, cease adding fuel, to this fire that burns me and you
