So you 're here – uninvited. Stranger! Filthy!
What do you hold in your arms? Is it audacity?
A spotless meddler; in need of empathy
Unwanted reminder; that we can still be free
Where do you come from, stranger?
From a land far away?
Don't raise me up; [just] let me be
Are you my future down the way?
A system of racial domination
On top of a military occupation
Compounded by colonization
And gradual annexation
The screams of the many in my throat
The screams of the many in my throat
The screams of the many in my throat
The songs of Palestinian children
So they founded a country in a piece of mud and rock
Our Oriental equals, how exotically they float
As we stood and watch
As we stood and watch
Up on our shores they washed
All the murders we (bitterly) endorsed
Suits stay clean - lives stay lost
As we stood; stood and watched
Just fuckin' stood, stood and watched
But it's recorded on the sands, the waves, the rocks
Our Aegean haven; A summary sentence for loss
So the suits occupy
The plateau
The suits occupy
Our soul
The only living souls - decomposing
The only living souls
The only living souls - (on our) sea floors
In our dead homes
Apathy!
Apathy!
On our Apathy's, 1st World thrones
Consuming death; like a thousand thorns
On our Apathy's, 1st World thrones
Consuming death; like a thousand thorns
I do not see
I do not speak
