Guns in the Distance Maverick Sabre

[00:10.01] No, no, no
[00:15.72] 80 dead in a foreign place
[00:16.92] 22 in the bombed foyer,
[00:18.60] There's bloody hands, can you wash these stains?
[00:20.59] For the times, can we stop this rage?
[00:22.46] Watch the truth get indoctrinated
[00:24.36] No money, no doctors for patients
[00:26.24] Always money for bombs and not payslips
[00:28.01] And the bullets, they keep you in slavery
[00:29.97] Mother won't get to kiss her child
[00:31.61] Father won't get to see her smile
[00:33.53] Little hands, can you hold on tighter?
[00:35.34] You saw death, now it's in her eyes
[00:37.24] Heard they want to see you misplaced, and
[00:39.01] What the hell are we doing to change things?
[00:40.95] Politicians, can you see this pain?
[00:42.88] 'Cause I can hear guns in the distance
[00:47.13] And why don't they listen
[00:50.16] When a mother cries for her children?
[00:54.25] Ooh hey, ooh hey, ooh, hey

[01:14.35] 95 in a boat found drowning
[01:15.96] 26 from a soldier's gun, there's
[01:17.80] Too many kids, many open coffins
[01:19.67] Tell me how all these wars been sponsored
[01:21.43] Gettin' rich, tell me who gets paid
[01:23.20] Little boy in the morning page
[01:25.17] Do we mourn? Do we learn his name?
[01:26.75] Another lost in the pouring rain
[01:28.82] Do we try? Do we try? Do we fall back?
[01:30.60] Little girl gettin' called by the food bank
[01:32.45] Another mistake is sold through a new plan
[01:34.21] Wonder awake and hope for the future
[01:37.37] See who gets mentioned
[01:38.11] As your minutes hand ticks by
[01:40.06] Tell me who gets sentenced
[01:41.68] As they commit violence at stateside
[01:43.99] Old greedy men send boys
[01:45.27] Time again out to the front line
[01:47.20] Who's a tyrant here? Who's a terrorist?
[01:49.03] I'm seeing bloodlines
[01:51.01] If love is a kingdom
[01:52.41] This is a prison that we're inside
[01:54.58] And listen, child, go

[02:28.13] Better we run, better we hide away
[02:31.68] Forever we fall, we're burnin' the sky away
[02:35.23] They'll never be young, they'll never be ours again
[02:39.00] Now, look what we've done
[02:41.12] And look what we've left for them
[02:42.73] Now, look what we've done
[02:44.88] Look what we've left for them
