Colours (2016 Remaster) (2016 Remastered)

Deep inside the border

Children are crying

Fighting for food

Holding their heads

Breaking their bread with a stone

All along the roadside

People are standing

Watching the sun

Shielding their eyes

Brushing the flies from their face

Tell me what can you say

Tell me who do you blame

Like a mirror you see yourself

These people each have a name

All around the township

Young men are dying

Of

Hunger and thirst

The well has run dry

The tears from her eye feeds her son

Tell me

You can say you're pulling back

We see the pictures everywhere

But what we don't see is what's

Going on behind the closed doors

And you don't seem to care

Do you expect me to believe you

How can you really think

You can take your horse down to the water

Hold a gun at his head

And make him drink

No matter what you say it never gets any better

No matter what you do we never see any change

People living without rights

Without their dignity

How loud does one man have to shout

To earn his right to be free

You can keep your toy soldiers

To segregate the black and white

But when the dust settles

And the blood stops running

How do you sleep at night

No matter what you say

What makes you so high and mighty

What makes you so qualified

You can sit there and say

How many have their freedom

But how many more have died

You decide to sit in judgment

Trying to play God yourself

Someday soon the buck is gonna stop

Stop with you and no one else

No matter
