My country is better than your country Date: Thursday, 1st August 2002 @ 09:41:17 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: evilapple There they are sitting on their silver chairs Shouting at the ants down below Please take back the freedom you promised me The different colours you never painted They don't know They don't know The changes we've had Vacuum the crumbs we have left Keep the truth close to your chest They don't want to change if you don't want to Everyone who wanted were crazy They burned the buildings They took your homes We tell you because we have control You do not know that we dropped the ball The guilty are beyond freedom Pride in where you live Place your faith in our dotted line You believe that you can do anything But find yourself doing nothing For a bitter thank you A bronze key for you Run for your life Run for your life The others are around the corner Your blood is at a new low price Be free and walk away?
