When I grew up It was different
|
There was no violence or like other towns
|
But when I came home from school that night
|
I saw the cops were on the run
|
There were kids on the wall reaching up to the sky
|
Like a culture shock of joy
|
It sent me into a strong fascination
|
And what's been lost is back
|
|
[Chorus]
|
'Cause we were the only ones
|
Darling and me this time it's going down
|
|
You know where I belong
|
And you know it's time that we let go
|
Been drifting so far away from home
|
November came back and all was gone
|
You know where I belong, my darling
|
This time It's going down
|
|
When December came I was older
|
And snow was finally on the ground
|
Soldiers lining up, cameras feeding the world
|
With pictures that would mark my mind
|
I heard this woman scream as she was begging for trust
|
Then turning ghost-like behind the court
|
A shotgun blast, as new years passed
|
Oppression was on the run
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
They're Going Down
|
|
You know where I belong
|
And you know it's time that we let go
|
Been drifting so far away from home
|
November came back and all was gone
|
You know where I belong, my darling
|
It's going down
|
