Letra

Every nail is sewn
But severed from the place where it belongs
Caught up in the mindless struggle
Of the weak against the strong
Headlights along the border
Keep the peace there, law and order
Why can't we see, it's all a record of lies?
It's their kind of strength, their only defence
An imaginary line
Just a kid and his younger brother
Headed for the wire
Had no rights in the telescopic sights
Of the vigilante's rifle fire
And now he's buried on the border
Where the rivers are blood, not water
Why can't we see, it's all a record of lies?
It's their kind of truth, it can only be proved
With imaginary lines
In times like these concerning
Who decides which bridge is burning?
Don't fall for map reading
Just make sure that you're still breathing
After the dreadful lines were drawn
The children would dream of the pearls
And how beautiful they were
Year after year they would dive
To the bottom of the lagoon
Hoping that the oysters would come back
They risked everything, their homes, families
And legal possessions to search for the pearls
To make sure they were heavy enough
To reach the bottom
The children tied stones to their backs
Many of them died
Streams of blood and broken bodies
Rose to the surface of the lagoon
And the lagoon cried and cried and cried and cried
Why can't we see, it's all a record of lies?
It's their kind of strength, their only defence
An imaginary line
Why can't we see, it's all a record of lies?
It's their kind of truth, it can only be proved
With imaginary lines
Why can't we see, it's all a record of lies?
It's their kind of strength, their only defence
An imaginary line
