Testo Deep Dark Waters - Primal Scream
Testo della canzone Deep Dark Waters (Primal Scream), tratta dall'album Come Ahead
Echoes from the past
Day by day reminders
We swore "they shall not pass"
I fear the worst shall surely find us
The future bent and spent
In dark enlightenment
The "people they have spoken"
The serpents egg cracked open
Bodies washed up on the beach
Children drowning out of reach
Hear the children cry
This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter
Shadows from the past
Cancelling the future
We thought we'd seen the last
Of the Euro high class butchers
The fate of mice and men
We're sleepwalking again
Into a mess of our own making
The barricades are shaking
This time in business suits
Not in helmets or jackboots
Pull the trees out by the roots
And shake the ground with thunder
This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter
Our fortress continent
Our values torn and bent
We bomb and when they run
We tell them they can't come
Just like in World War two
We showed no pity on the Jews
We othered them as well
Abandoned them to hell
"They're not welcome here"
"send them all back there"
Where's the enlightenment
Our crime, their punishment?
Our fortress continent
Built on Colonial theft
Our European mess...
This ship is sailing
Into deep dark waters
All systems are failing
We go like cattle to the slaughter
To the slaughter
