Words Can Save Us

April morning summer come soon

Clouds follow after

Morning sun is hidden by noon

Day shrouded over

Tears to face the morning news

We watch our future burn

And wonder if we'll ever learn

That words can save us

War in Broken Promise Land

Fame fear and gunfire

Cowboy culture blood on its hands

Flag fuel and empire

Bit parts for shooting stars

Above the dying trees

No-one looking up to see

How words can save us

Number one Favourite son

One more outsider

Army drops its cluster bombs

Boy sees his future

World are you listening now?

This fool just had his day

Who'll be brave enough to say

That words can save us?
