Lyrics The Levellers

The Levellers

Heart Of The Country

Orange light floods the square

Mechanical eyes pierce everywhere

Still you can touch the heart of darkness here

Within these neon veins

From grey to black

Then pitch and more

Our new towns an open sore

Their projects torn by feudal law

Waiting to explode

We're living in restricted zones

As the heart of this country grows cold

You don't need conspiracies

Read the walls and you will see

Our nation bleeds anxiety

In every darkened room

There are many ways to break a man

That don't require a heavy hand

Poisoned air squandered land

Those silent killing floors

I've come so far to find some heart in this country

I need a song I can call my own

I've searched so hard to find the heart of this country

But all I found was a restricted zone

And we're dying in restricted zones

At the heart of this country

Disowned
