Midnight Oil - River Runs Red Lyrics

Font:

Align:

So you cut all the tall trees down, you poisoned the sky and the sea

Youve taken whats good from the ground

But youve left precious little for me

You remember the flood and the fall, we remember the light on the hill

There should be enough for us all, but the dollar is driving us still

River runs red, black rain falls, dust in my hand

River runs red, black rain falls, on my bleeding land

So we came and we conquered and found

Riches of commons and kings

Who strangled and wrestled the ground

But they never put back anything

Now Im trapped like a dog in a cage

Wherever the truth is pursued

It must be the curse of the age

Whats taken is never renewed

(hirst/moginie)
