From the recording A Separate|Divide
Lyrics
In an endless desert, that moaning city
in that makeshift home, a grieving family
an Unknowing child, a conflicted heart
an innocence
a violence
at odds
Every forced removal
an unfinished war
the grip of reason
a conscience ignored
There’s a violence in our hearts
There’s a violence
in the families kept apart
There’s a violence
in the queues you’ve built
There’s a violence
in the school’s you’ve destroyed
In that desert;
endless desert
Those borders, they’re on fire
where the sun melts every living thing
that desert, it’s on fire
Flames flicker with the dead
they wilt to black
dust and embers ride the wave of heat
and endless war
Each time, Each time the dead become nothing
for no one
for no reason
for all time
for a memory erased
