Of a sovereignty so fictitious
They're in your home now spreading disease
Our nation slogging down on wounded knees
...Until they're dead
Battalions built on a mountain of lies
Taking heads, eloquent deception
Superseded and set aside
We watch the hills as they enter and then divide
We saw it
We bought it
From severed to delivered
The invasion has been
Predevised to pacify, and redefine
I can't hear them
And I won't listen
To lie frozen and slowly fade into the black
The seventh cavalry has arrived to divide our reservations
Dear ears to decide
To open fire, no compromise
Bleak Dakota, in a crimson snow
A Ghost dancer, in a grave unknown
Off in the wind, their shots resound
As we become, one with the ground
I can't hear them
And I won't listen
To lie frozen and slowly fade into the black
So steadfast in reinforcing the myth Of a sovereignty so fictitious They're in your home now spreading disease Our nation slogging down on wounded knees ...Until they're dead Battalions built on a mountain of lies Taking heads, eloquent deception Superseded and set aside We watch the hills as they enter and then divide We saw it We bought it From severed to delivered The invasion has been Predevised to pacify, and redefine I can't hear them And I won't listen To lie frozen and slowly fade into the black The seventh cavalry has arrived to divide our reservations Dear ears to decide To open fire, no compromise Bleak Dakota, in a crimson snow A Ghost dancer, in a grave unknown Off in the wind, their shots resound As we become, one with the ground I can't hear them And I won't listen To lie frozen and slowly fade into the black Explain Request ×
