Another Country Lyrics by Black Eyes

Cough

0

If we can't live like other people do
(These days I’ve been finding it hard to trust myself)
What holds our hands behind us?
(As oil drums carry our nation's blood)
If we can't move like other people
(Blackened by too much summer fun and offshore spills)
Oh oh what’s wrapped around us
Oh oh and how to move to home home
(The time to chill has passed because soon)
To movements that we know know
(We will feel the effects of our warring globe)
Knowing that it's home home wrapped
(Warming up to suicide)
All around us
We have a new kind of rain to worry us
Our nocturnal emissions touching the face oh god
(A new kind of rain to worry us)
Moving backwards through native tongues
(Drumming on metal rooftops)
Native tongues reach sore lungs
(A new kind of rain to worry us)
Native tongues reach into sore lungs
(Around the world)
Sore lungs explode outward through bleeding gums
If we can't live like other people do
What holds our hands behind us?
If we can't move like other people
Oh oh what's wrapped around us
Oh oh and how to move to home home
To movements that we know know
Knowing that it's home home
Creation, I'm not my own
Creation, I'm not my own
Possession, I’m not my own
Creation, swimming backward through
Native tongues, native country receive
Native son, native son fumble in
Foreign tongues, speak to ghosts is act of
Generation, speaking tongues is our separation
