lyrics

The sun in summer
The bright red leaves
The cool cool waters
The lush green wheat field
The dark brown soil
The years of toil

The dark black musket
The calvary
The kegs of gunpowder
The jugs of whiskey
The longboats
The tall ships
The cannonball

Removals

What do I see
What do I hear
500 years of terror and fear
And all that’s left
Is a bitter trail of tears

Walked this continent
10,000 years
Lived in love
Fought in fear
Some roamed and wandered around
Others built cities and settled down
Then we were pillaged
And we were raped
They made every excuse they could make
After they plundered they buried the truth
Beside our dead

If this is new and you wonder why
Take a look at your alibis
Your history books are full of lies

We can no longer see the sun
Because the skies are filled with pollution
And we tell stories to our sons and daughters
Of a time when there were clear blue waters
And now the villages are all gone
But the memories linger on
The bitterest truth
Where once we were millions, now we are thousands
