kev carmody - on the wire lyrics
[verse one: kev carmody]
he came back from the city
i say “cus’ where ya bin?”
he says “brother i been livin’ on the wire
lived down in that gutter where the fittest survive
i ploughed through them fields of fire
had a needle in a vein, that profited the sane
had a friend with no name who was a liar
saw the white walls of freedom, never found the black door
saw the devil sing with the angels in a choir….sisters…
[chorus: tiddas]
we’ll take you home to the land we know
give you that peace of the evening
give you that moon with the wind on your face
the rains and the change of each season
[verse two: kev carmody]
i saw people who were trapped
under the whip of fat cats
saw people there devoid of their dreaming
deep down inside there with so much to hide
brother you could see in their eyes there’s no meaning
so take me my sisters and welcome me home
so i never again walk alone
our spirit demands that we die in this land
and i know now my spirit’s come home….sisters…
[chorus: tiddas]
we’ll take you home to the land we know
give you that peace of the evening
give you that moon with the wind on your face
the rains and the change of each season
[verse three: kev carmody]
i says, ‘brother what you see in this land of “progress”?’
he says, ‘i never felt them four winds a blowin’
lived with people in chains, the wounded and lame
heard messiahs who spoke without knowin’
and them seven seas rose and the desert lands froze
each individual there was trapped in a prison
and my spirit cried out, to know what it’s about, brother
their basis had no rhyme or no reason….sisters…
[chorus: tiddas]
we’ll take you home to the land we know
give you that peace of the evening
give you that moon with the wind on your face
the rains and the change of each season
we’ll take you home to the land we know
give you that peace of the evening
give you that moon with the wind on your face
the rains and the change of each season
we’ll take you home to the land we know
give you that peace of the evening
give you that moon with the wind on your face
the rains and the change of each season
