Now as Ah climb up the mound on the pillar of dreams
Ah can see many things they just ain’t as they seem!
We got a strong leader with an army behind
The people are in misery yet he’s like deaf dumb and blind
He got broad shoulder and warrior’s chest
Ya think this boy’s a hero?
Damn son!
Bitch yer got played!
It’s hard to lie there all awake in the night
When you’re the only motherfucker remotely cravin’ the light
We all wander in the shadows in the frozen gloom
And the only place of quiet is the tomb!
As Ah wade in the river of a healing renewal
Ah see a group of people receiving sawdust as gruel
Their stomachs all ache and they’re all unemployed
But they say ‘That’s how it works, it’ll never change. Suck it up. BOOOOYYY!
They all got no hope and no reason to live
But they won’t listen to a single explanation Ah give
It’s hard to lie there all awake in the night
When you’re the only motherfucker remotely cravin’ the light
We all wander in the shadows in the frozen gloom
And the only place of quiet is the tomb!
Now as Ah wander in the desert of a great civil war
I see armies setting fire to their neighbours next door
The burners they be patriots and burned they be traitors
They feed their brother’s children to them fierce alligators
But when I say you all the same and the enemy is other
They all cast down their arms in rage cos they be cursin’ their brother!
It’s hard to lie awake at night
When you’re the only motherfucker remotely cravin’ the light
We all wander in the shadows in the frozen gloom
And the only place of quiet is the tomb!
All bow down boys, all bow down!
Fall down like dominoes boys, w’all fall down…
