From Tierra del Fuego to Ungava Bay |
|
The history of betrayal continues to today |
|
The spirit of Almighty Voice, the ghost of Anna Mae |
|
Call like thunder from the mountains -- you can hear them say |
|
It's a stolen land |
|
Apartheid in Arizona, slaughter in Brazil |
|
If bullets don't get good PR there's other ways to kill |
|
Kidnap all the children, put 'em in a foreign system |
|
Bring them up in no-man's land where no one really wants them |
|
It's a stolen land |
|
Stolen land -- but it's all we've got |
|
Stolen land -- and there's no going back |
|
Stolen land -- and we'll never forget |
|
Stolen land -- and we're not through yet |
|
In my mind I catch a picture -- big black raven in the sky |
|
Looking at the ocean -- sail reflected in black eye -- |
|
Sail as white as heroin, white like weathered bones -- |
|
Rum and guns and smallpox gonna change the face of home |
|
In this stolen land... |
|
If you're like me you'd like to think we've learned from our mistakes |
|
Enough to know we can't play god with others' lives at stake |
|
So now we've all discovered the world wasn't only made for whites |
|
What step are you gonna take to try and set things right |
|
In this stolen land |
|
Stolen land -- but it's all we've got |
|
Stolen land -- and there's no going back |
|
Stolen land -- and we'll never forget |
|
Stolen land -- and we're not through yet |
