|
| [00:28.06] |
We're out here on the borders with |
| [00:30.77] |
Our favourite few possessions |
| [00:34.02] |
Traded stories whispered round the fire |
| [00:38.77] |
As shadows in the searchlights mugshots in the files |
| [00:45.77] |
Waiting in the camps behind the wire |
| [00:51.73] |
Kick the door until it opens |
| [00:54.85] |
What you have you cannot hold |
| [00:57.78] |
We are young forever hungry you are fat and growing old |
| [01:03.62] |
Every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [01:07.78] |
A higher wall |
| [01:09.83] |
Still every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [01:12.39] |
We pick the leaves of coca we stack the crates of cola |
| [01:26.66] |
We wait upon the tables where you dine |
| [01:33.40] |
And learn from you not to accept |
| [01:35.88] |
The little that we're given |
| [01:38.84] |
To take the piece of silver where we can |
| [01:41.66] |
Now clutching at these papers in another office line |
| [01:50.61] |
We're staring from the darkness up |
| [01:53.53] |
At windows filled with light |
| [01:56.66] |
And every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [02:02.97] |
And every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [02:08.83] |
And every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [02:14.95] |
And every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [02:20.75] |
|
| [02:26.79] |
In my town we used to pray to idols sent from far away |
| [02:32.13] |
From out beyond the dusty days we heard your voices call |
| [02:38.29] |
And in your town the streets are cleaned |
| [02:40.66] |
The order stands the sirens scream |
| [02:43.90] |
You talk of peace vacation dreams - and reinforce the wall |
| [02:47.63] |
Now in the queues at immigration in the border zone |
| [03:18.95] |
We are your bastard children all coming home |
| [03:28.15] |
And every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [03:31.64] |
Every day you try to build a higher wall |
| [03:37.18] |
But your money cannot stop us |
| [03:39.66] |
And you violence cannot stop us |
| [03:42.64] |
No you will never stop us with your higher wall |
