lyrics

RCMP pushes through another line
Guns are drawn, see their smile
Happy to finally fight at last
A hundred years of holding back

What they want isn’t you – it’s your hope
They cover it up with the PR glow
While Government pretends that they don’t know
There’s a mother in the snow

Unbelievable. My God.
Hypocrisy of empty laws.
Chains of a clerk in a government job
The guns are getting cold

They’re not here for you
They’re not here for me
They’re not here for anything that peace could be
The only thing they wanna protect, you see
It’s the oil
And the property
… Hold my breath:

One by one across the land it starts
Change is coming
From broken hearts
For kids who need more than dimestore charms
Changing tide
Guiding star

There was land out here
There was gold, there was fear
Chasing an unraveling dream
And if the old British economy didn’t need money or land or oil …

I’d probably be on some Russian farm
Digging potatoes, spinning yarns
But here I am watching my country lie
About how we heat our homes at night

No doctrine here
No burning bush
Just oil + water
Give it a push
Watch it flow
To the shore
It’s a race
To settle the score

Are we friends now?
Can we be friends now?
Who’s your friend now?
