lyrics

CULTURES
is this the end
that I’ve so long condemned
I counted the hours
before it began

were they seized
our youth and our griefs
forced to blank pages
thrown to the bottom of the sea

I held up my hands
he mocked me and danced
danced on a river
but the river ran dry

I see how people are running wild
coming out of the shadows
thought they were buried in the night
they’re coming out from the shadows

I heard the bells
ring out and then
the whispers of the convicted
concealed in a shell

they said do not to confuse
us with insane people
for they all had their reasons
but nothing to gain

I see how people are running wild
thought they were buried in the night
they’re coming out from the shadows

there’s a call for them
a revolution
that will seize our lights
and give us the dark

but remember not to judge
remember reality
I praise our cultures and differences
