Stef Kamil Carlens - The Journey Will Be Long lyrics
Your rating:
Beautiful people when they're calm When they're taking care of one another It won't be long Before it all goes wrong They do it every time go ask your fathers What are they waiting on A Messiah or a time bomb And when the day comes We'll strap the weapons on Someone betrayed us Someone outplayed us We'll put the helmets on And when the war is done We'll be beautiful people when we're calm We're all here quite aware of one another For centuries we've been living here in peace I guess the message really got across the border We all got our bellies full Sleeping like a prince beneath a blancket of wool Self-defense is only natural Maybe there's a few dirty tricks we pulled There's a war in the town where we used to work The whole damn country has gone berserk There's killing and raping by a bunch of young turks A paradise turned into hell on earth A lot of people left their homes and are on the run Nobody remembers how this war begun Just rying to survive under the barrel of a gun And when the race is won we'll be Beautiful people when we're calm All is quit now the past has been forgotten Some they say there's countries we betrayed Some of our ancestors hearts may have been rotten We sail along the seas of right and wrong So vast you wonder why you even bother The winds are strong The journey will be long Some get lucky and some are making water
