The Shadow Line
The sky threw down it's blood and rain on the day that she was born They gave her number, rank and name To see if she could hold her own
But I won't see red
She wouldn't wear her shoes of green, my little girl, and she wouldnt sing And when at last, they asked her why She pointed at the world outside
But I wont see red
The men in power, they set up eyes, to show us where the shadow lines Would trip and blow, and show us how To keep us safely from ourselves And they watched us fall down one by one As the hunger came and seasons turned Till in the end, they called her name And the fear bit deep, and the sirens came
But I wont see red
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com They say some towns are painted gold, and pictures line the city walls They show us things we cannot be And lead us there in hope and greed
But I wont see red
My little girl, I found her there. They'd told her she could outrun death They gave her gold and pretty things Till she was bought and sold and she Told me with, her final breath
But I wont see red
When she was gone, they took her name, and all she had lost, to sell again And the children followed one by one With empty eyes drawn to the tune Of endless gold, undying fame And the cycle turns on blood and rain
And I see red
