lyrics

V1:
Spanish lips, foreign papers
New lovers, staring under
Desert whisper, perfume fingers
Twisted triggers, breaking windows
Light a bonfire, lick the matches
Kill the children, feed the planet
Free the prisoners, arrest the victims
Burn the bodies, save the species

V2:
Dirty water, plastic glass
Broken fuses, chewing bats
Bags of money, bags of grass,
Bags of bodies, stinking in the trash
Slick transactions, in the dark,
Disposable people lead the pack
Microclimates, micropains,
Macrokillings, macrosane

Chorus:
If the water carries us down, will this ship still turn us around (2x)

V3:
Bleeding fingers, on a fence
Law and order, lifeless vets
Held for ransom, hell to pay
Hell on earth, in the divided states
Endless praises, commercial sounds
Drowning faces, table bound
Hello Kitty, hello dear
Goodbye kisses and goodbye fear

Chorus

Bridge:
Oh still, still I wish
Oh, for water and rain, rain
Oh lord, still I pray
Water and rain, rain, rain, rain, wash us away

Chorus (faster)
