Lyrics
The world was given by his hold grace the hand of god must touch upon that place we can't allow that kind of primitive show them the book and teach them how to live Their words were strange we didn't understand two men in black who had a holy man they said that we must hear their sacred verse we didn't know if we were blessed or cursed They said they'd come - they would build a road we'll burn your trees down we'll give you clothes teach your children how to read and write our God will watch you each and every night we didn't want their God we had the sun our spirits moved inside of every one They were sleeping They runed their light upon our innocence gave us pain - gave us no release we offered flowers to our spirit guide can you help us for me must decide Are we sleeping The answer came we heard it in the wind these men have lied and you have never sinned they're men like you - they know no better way give them to me upon their seventh day When they're sleeping And so it happened on the seventh night when the moon was shining high and bright our people took them like the message said our spirit happy that their god was dead Now they're sleeping
