lyrics

Don’t be aftraid you know we’ll deliver
Get you past the guards at the gate
Don’t be afraid there’s no need to shiver
We’ll get you cross the chop on the lake

We’ll rope the statues and bring them down
We’ll paint the streets and say this is our town
And all the hate will just become a cloud
Because, because, because we stood our ground

Free up some time ...and come to the garden
We took some land and made it our space
Lie on the ground before it all hardens
And all you have is a distant taste

When we step up, they step down
They disappear into a yellow cloud
But then they come and shoot another round
You see your friends all hit the ground

Don’t be afraid you know we’ll deliver
Get you past the guards at the gate
Don’t be afraid there’s no need to shiver
We’ll get you cross the chop on the lake

We’ll rope the statues and bring them down
We’ll paint the streets and say this is our town
And all the hate will just become a cloud
Because, because, because we stood our ground
