《State of the Nation》歌词

[00:06:36] You can walk, or you can run

[00:06:36] You don't have to be someone

[00:06:36] I went on a summer cruise

[00:06:36] Upon an ocean born to lose

[00:06:36] My brother said that he was dead

[00:06:36] I saw his face and shook my head

[00:06:36] Can you see where we can't be

[00:06:36] Were losing our blood in the sea

[00:06:36] Cause its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Yes, its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Oh, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Is causing deprivation

[00:06:36] Oh, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Is causing deprivation

[00:06:36] From my home I traveled far

[00:06:36] I drove in my stolen car

[00:06:36] When it broke down, I kissed the ground

[00:06:36] Cause i don't kiss when you're around

[00:06:36] I don't find that I have been

[00:06:36] The portrait of an only son

[00:06:36] If thats the case, then who could tell

[00:06:36] Where my story had begun?

[00:06:36] Cause its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Yes, its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Yes, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats causing deprivation

[00:06:36] Oh, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats causing deprivation

[00:06:36] Even now, I'm all alone

[00:06:36] Behind a wall thats made of stone

[00:06:36] I think about where we have been

[00:06:36] And all the sights that could be seen

[00:06:36] I know it all could be worthwhile

[00:06:36] If only I could force a smile

[00:06:36] Now we turn our backs to the sea

[00:06:36] The shame of a nation well never be

[00:06:36] Cause its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Yes, its the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Thats holding our salvation

[00:06:36] Oh, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Is causing deprivation

[00:06:36] Yes, the state of the nation

[00:06:36] Is causing deprivation
