Standing Down
You go your way and I'll go mine
We'll meet at the table in a matter of time
Where we'll feast on the gifts of the weak and resigned
And we'll fill our bellies with splendour
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
The sea has parted, our path revealed
To pastures aplenty and a heavy yield
But we'll look on as you drown, for our banks are sealed
And we'll take in this the greatest of pleasure
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
Come strangers don't heed the tales they weave
There ain't no promised land away for to leave
So let's all down our tools and await our reprieve
For this all seems so horribly familiar
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
We'll meet at the table in a matter of time
Where we'll feast on the gifts of the weak and resigned
And we'll fill our bellies with splendour
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
The sea has parted, our path revealed
To pastures aplenty and a heavy yield
But we'll look on as you drown, for our banks are sealed
And we'll take in this the greatest of pleasure
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
Come strangers don't heed the tales they weave
There ain't no promised land away for to leave
So let's all down our tools and await our reprieve
For this all seems so horribly familiar
What will it take to make them stop and think again?
We're standing down
What will it take to make them turn and look around?
We're standing down
