Testo di The Ballad Of The Red Flame Lily

On this day All the trees in Rhodesia are aflame As the eyes of the quivering flowers Of aching replete And the lions Overflowing with vengeance for the pines Not occupation but a sentence, and in time We'll all be faking retreat Have you got rid of it yet? Is faith corroded with neglect? Can we ever hide hurt? At least at night the harvest Sun's yoke Is rising like the rebel smoke Beyond the oceans and swirls And it will shame us now And it will shame us still And it will shame us now And it will shame us still What a hollow promise From hollow men What a shallow grave For shallow men You're the bull that paws the earth The leopard that teaches to run You're the crocodile that eats the Sun So we walk on (So we walk on) Through and beyond (So we walk on the failures of men) The failures of men (The failures of men) And we walk (There's a void) There's a void at the center (At the center) Of everything And it will shame us now And it will shame us still And it will shame us now And it will shame us still And it will shame us now And it will shame us still (It was wrong) And it will shame us now And it will shame us still (I was wrong) And it will shame us now And it will shame us still (It was wrong) And it will shame us now And it will shame us still (I was wrong) And it will shame us now (It was wrong) And it will shame us still (I was wrong) And it will shame us now (It was wrong) And it will shame us still (I was wrong) And it will shame us now (I was wrong come here) And it will shame us still (I was wrong come here) And it will shame us now (I was wrong come here) And it will shame us still (I was wrong come here)
