The morning lies heavy on me, father |
|
I couldn't find the time to fall asleep |
|
And I couldn't stop from thinking on it either |
|
And the morning lies heavy on me |
|
They said I wouldn't have to be there 'till tomorrow |
|
And there's friends of mine I've really got to see |
|
But it's not goodbye, I know there's soon to follow |
|
And the morning lies heavy on me |
|
Tell me, who's the one who fights until he's broken |
|
Is it the men who sit in judgement of us all |
|
I wouldn't care if it was their lives they were taking |
|
They don't listen nor even answer to the call |
|
And tomorrow I'll be flying from the mainland |
|
And joining in a new company |
|
And some of us will never see our homeland |
|
And the morning lies heavy on me |
|
And what's left for decent people to believe in |
|
It's not a question of to be or not to be |
|
And what's the point, it's only us that we're deceiving |
|
And the morning lies heavy on me |
|
Tell me who's the one who fights until he's broken |
|
Is it the men who sit in judgement of us all |
|
I wouldn't care if it was their lives they were taking |
|
But they don't listen nor even answer to the call |
|
The morning lies heavy on me, father |
|
I couldn't find the time to fall asleep |
|
And I couldn't stop from thinking on it either |
|
And the morning lies heavy on me |
