lyrics

SOON THERE WILL BE MORE OF US

Did you hear that?
Thunder rolling
From the gold mines
To the coast
Sleeping giant
Had a bad dream
Wakes up tied to a
Whipping post

One by one, rebellious
Soon there will be more of us
We can only take so much
You have gone to war with us

Once I turned my
Back on the ocean
Before I knew it
Swept away
Running water
Always seeps through
Your finger won’t keep
The flood at bay

One by one…

And we won’t stop
Until we get what we want
And we won’t stop
Until we get what we came for
Till it’s clean
Until it’s shining again
Just like it was
When we first gave it all to you
