China Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I have found my own way

To build sandy castles on the swamp

And put all my life in this

(Look my son, one day all this will be yours)

I know what it is to see your own work

Lay ruined at your feet

And blame God

(Because he never saved me)

[Verse 2]

I have seen the files of men

Marching to the great fire

Who's got to be the live torch this time?

(One of you has got to sacrifice your life

So that the millions of others go on living)

We don't have another aim

But blowing tiny bubbles

And call them boldly metaphors

[Collision]

Are we to build a new sun?

Are we to find a new sun?

Are we to burn a new sun?

Are we to fire a new sun?
