[00:41.83]You can walk  or you can run
[00:46.02]You dont have to be someone
[00:50.01]I went on a summer cruise
[00:54.31]Upon an ocean born to lose
[00:58.12]My brother said that he was dead
[01:02.24]I saw his face and shook my head
[01:06.55]Can you see where we cant be
[01:10.48]Were losing our blood in the sea
[01:14.28]Cause its the state of the nation
[01:18.26]Thats holding our salvation
[01:22.32]Yes  its the state of the nation
[01:26.44]Thats holding our salvation
[01:30.87]Oh  the state of the nation
[01:34.80]Is causing deprivation
[01:39.06]Oh  the state of the nation
[01:43.11]Is causing deprivation
[02:04.47]From my home I traveled far
[02:08.72]I drove in my stolen car
[02:12.58]When it broke down  I kissed the ground
[02:16.71]Cause I dont kiss when youre around
[02:21.01]I dont find that I have been
[02:25.00]The portrait of an only son
[02:29.12]If thats the case  then who could tell
[02:33.36]Where my story had begun
[02:36.92]Cause its the state of the nation
[02:40.85]Thats holding our salvation
[02:44.97]Yes  its the state of the nation
[02:49.15]Thats holding our salvation
[02:53.33]Yes  the state of the nation
[02:57.51]Thats causing deprivation
[03:01.57]Oh  the state of the nation
[03:05.75]Thats causing deprivation
[03:44.00]Even now  Im all alone
[03:47.68]Behind a wall thats made of stone
[03:51.86]I think about where we have been
[03:55.98]And all the sights that could be seen
[04:00.10]I know it all could be worthwhile
[04:04.34]If only I could force a smile
[04:08.59]Now we turn our backs to the sea
[04:12.52]The shame of a nation well never be
[04:16.39]Cause its the state of the nation
[04:20.26]Thats holding our salvation
[04:24.25]Yes  its the state of the nation
[04:28.43]Thats holding our salvation
[04:32.61]Oh  the state of the nation
[04:36.79]Is causing deprivation
[04:41.16]Yes  the state of the nation
[04:45.03]Is causing deprivation
