Heat
Heat and light
Dust and heat
Touch and sight
Teeth
Teeth that bite
Tooth and nail
Stand and fight
Dirt
Dirt and blood
Blood and oil
It's alright
Sleep
Peaceful sleep
They sleep sound
Every night
Cursed
We never learn
This is just a bad day on anyone's terms
Just another fuckup on a catastrophic scale
So let's save ourselves before we save the whale
Trade
Trade money for lives
We fight with guns you fight with sticks and knives
Pain
Without consequence
If it's not ours it's irrelevant
It's a long way home
A long long term
A damn long road
Will we ever learn
It's a christless shame
But don't go for your guns
Or fight back
Cause your only friend now is the Sun
It's a colourful place
This delicate land
Soon it will be
Lines of oil wells and sand
It's a christless shame
In these terrible times
For the rest of your days
You'll be walking on landmines
