There's a spirit floating on the water
|
There's a shadow lying down by the shore
|
Wasn't he there a year before?
|
A sacrifice for the coat he's wearing
|
A 'paradise' for the lady
|
Who dares colour him red upon the shore?
|
|
We carry the burden upon our shoulder
|
We carry their lives in the palm of our hand
|
Don't you care about the state you're in
|
Or don't you understand?
|
|
See the spirit floating on the water
|
See the shadow lying down by the shore
|
Wasn't he there some years before?
|
|
We carry the burden upon our shoulder
|
We carry their lives in the palm of our hand
|
Don't you care about the state you're in
|
Or don't you understand?
