I woke up in the sky today and I was falling down
I know someone couldn't wait to hear the sound
We've got a big, big secret behind our army ground
and we don t speak to it because we re ashamed of ourselves
They laugh at what they don t know how to face;
a nation of cable junkies watching the small screen
pretty faces are all we ever see but those pretty faces
are burning up a landmine beach
There's a million people living in a desert grave
They're all hungry and they all bleed the same
but the pieces? They' re not there.
Read across a long list of names
because they're all dead and all died the same
But our promise?
It s not there.
It s not fair
