Lawrence Collins - The Silent Desert lyrics
Teenage soldiers walk their beat beneath the hate filled eyes they flee, through this land I once called home, where only fear is free to roam… Strange how he looks just like me in his dusty green fatigues; strange how he shakes just like me, face to face on these ruined streets our histories meet… Now the guns ring out insane as ever- bullets and stone scream at each other, but the words are the same and the blood is the same- tell me now, when will our desert find silence again? Tell me, how many years, how much more pain until our desert finds silence again?… I won’t lie for you anymore… I won’t die for you anymore… As we walk these streets, our eyes must meet and learn to see- only the innocent bleed… Our leaders preach a hate they need to drive a fear, to feed their greed; So you and I must put aside fifty years of blood and pride- only then will peace be heard once again in our Silent Desert. |
