Lyrics


1. LONG WAY FROM HOME

There's a black Siberian
Look a white guy in the sun
Miles away from where the quest begun

From the ice to the sand
Nations moved across the land
Ever since time designed the man

Someday to return
To the place of my birth

I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home

Firewater in the blood
Took away the livelihood
Giving thanks every single year

Who the hell
Owns this land?
Is it God or is it man?
With the blood we draw the line again

I'm called to return
To the place of my birth

I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home
I'm a long way from home
But I know where I belong
It's a long way I know
But the heart will still carry me home


2. WHAT ABOUT LOVE

It crawls inside you
Like a strange disease
One time the giver
Next time the thief
I know what you know
So I won't let this go

You choose your brother
If he looks the same
You dirty white boy
It's all for gain
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go

What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
I want to know

The start of reason
Is the end of hate
Progressive healing
For the corporate
But I know what you know
So I won't let this go

What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
Why can't we embrace?
I've got to know
What about love?
And the human race
What about love?
It's a different face
What about love?
It's a big disgrace
I've got to know
I want to know


3. SILENT NATION

Shake the hand of time
With the builders of stone
Are you recognized?
You're not going home

Have to find a hideaway
So turn up the neighbors
The eagle is listening today

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation

No longer have a name
A number will do
Cutting the wires of doom
'Cos they're watching you

Raging in thought
Mouthless, the millions obey
So call off your dogs
You preachers of what we can say

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
Silent nation
In a silent nation
We must change what has been done
It's a travesty
Silent nation

It's not up to me
To change what has been done
It's not up to me
A speechless world looks on
It just has to be!
In a silent?
