Villagers - The Waves Lyrics
There are wavesUp in the diamond skyStronger than you and IAm a waveI break through the barrier reefCut through the carbon seaApproaching the shoreLook at the sky, look at the treesMan, it's all the same to meLook at the cars, look at the birdsAnd all of these invented wordsOne body's dying breath is another's birthWhat are you running from?What are you running from?Sister jewelry, brother judging, you are recognized this grudgeBuried deep beneath the sands of these ridiculous demandsNo time for innocence, or sitting on the fenceWhat are you gonna do?What are you gonnaWhen the wavesCover the coastal plainsThe tents and the cars and the trainsAnd the trace of honey bees sanitariesOf well insulated dignitariesAll screaming of the memory of the human loveFor anything, or anyoneLook at the birds, look at the beesMadam, it's all the same to meLook at the girls, look at the goldGathered, beat and bought and soldOne man's innocence is another's chanceWhat were you thinking of?What were you thinking of?Now please let me boil it down to this, my sonThis party's getting wet, but it ain't over yetSo what is it gonna be?What is it gonna be?What is it gonna be?Just let the wavesCover the coastal plainsThe fear and guilt and the painAnd the trace of honey bee jealousyOf well insulated bigotryAnd if you don't agreeYou better get back inside your cave'cause we're all dancing with the wavesUp in the diamond skyStronger than you and IAm a waveI break through the barrier reefCut through the carbon seaApproaching the shore [18x]
