Bài hát Colours Báo Lỗi

"Colours"


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 judgement

Trying to play God yourself

Someday soon the buck is gonna stop

Stop with you and noone else


No matter...
