troy cassar-daley - shadows on the hill lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
i see shadows on the hill
up beside the old sawmill
where my people were k!lled
i see shadows on the hill

[verse 1]
i see shadows on the ground
where the bones don’t make no sound
hidden so they can be found
i see shadows on the ground
on the old glen innes road
where the great man river flows
men, women, children slain
buried up there on that range

[verse 2]
i woke up in the dead of night
saw two men in the firelight
they had scars across their chest
said their spirits cannot rest
they spoke to me in tongue
i answered back at very once
never spoke that way before
i am not a man by law
[chorus]
but i see shadows on the hill
up beside the old sawmill
where my people were k!lled
i see shadows on the hill

[verse 2]
where the catfish makes its ring
and the birds refuse to sing
voices follow family lines
as they whisper through the pines
and around the granite stones
they’ll forever be alone
their k!llers got off free
but their shadows never leave

[chorus]
i see shadows on the hill
up beside the old sawmill
where my people were k!lled
i see shadows on the hill
