My song is of time and memory What we forget when we change the story We took as much as our books could carry And found a lie on the truth they buried Safe keep in the sleep of poppies Forget there was someone here before me Build temples of police and landlords To worship money, the god we pay for There I stood on the shore Of a story we don't tell anymore All the names were erased Buried under a land that my people stole I had a dream where I stood in the water Like the trees that grew with your daughters Came ships full of sick and plunder One day this will all be over The creeks run like ghosts in the basement Still alive coursing their displacement Our seeds of eternal war Lay buried in an unknown shore There I stood on the shore Of a story we don’t tell anymore All the names were erased Buried under a land that my people stole Songtexte Even the rivers run dry We built a highway big enough to stop time White clouds drift by Over a country found on a genocide Aus Songtexte Mania
