Reverse

When they took all our land thought the cavalry would come
Instead only a man from Goldman Sachs
They said the world would end so I braced for it
But in the morning I celebrated
When the internet came I hoped for one love
Not it seems all that I have are facebook friends
When the government is sacked from corporate spending
Put them to trial with a jury not of their class
Ideology seems to me vanity
So I’m still looking for the pain to end
Spend all of our youth on the history of war
Couldn’t we have something better to say?
TIME GOES FORWARD AND THERE’S NO GOING BACK
Ask me if Jesus is still alive and well
I’d tell you I’d rather listen to him
Bombs are thrown out for the ancient thoughts of land
I wonder what you will have in the end
Well if power you want then power you will have
But it seems to cause great suffering
All this pain, this greed, this violence
Couldn’t we have something better to say?
TIME MOVES FORWARD AND THERE’S NO GOING BACK
One love, one earth, one faith and put it to bed
Or you can listen to nothing that I’ve said
