^CWe turn away to face the ^Fcold, enduring chill

As the ^Bday begs the ^Fnight for ^Cmercy

Your sun’s so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars

Carved into stone on the face of earth

The moon is up and over One Tree Hill

We see the sun go down in your eyes



You ran like ^Briver^F to the ^Csea

Like a ^Briver^F to the ^Csea



And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone

Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it

Jara sang, his song a weapon, in the hands of love

You know his blood still cries from the ground



It runs like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea



I don’t believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts

While bullets rape the night of the merciful

I’ll see you again when the stars fall from the sky

And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill



We run like a river to the sea, like a river to the sea



^COh great ^Focean, ^Bold great ^Fsea

^Crun to the ^Focean, ^Brun ^Fto the ^Csea.
