La Liberté éclairant le monde – Endgame Creative Response

February 27, 2013

By Marco Kopac

Click here listen to the song:
La Liberté éclairant le monde

Finished are the empire days
When buildings touched the sun
Yes I was once someone
Was I a nation?

Now I live beneath the rubble
Dripping in your brain
The pain is setting in
Like an after thought

You will never leave me
You dependent patriot
Blinded by the order of your heart

I guess we’ll be getting on
I think we’re getting on
We’re getting on

Sawdust turns to sand as
You hobble near my shore
Staring at my light
Or what’s left of it

Begin forgotten laughter
Be the oil for my lamp
Plant the seeds
Reverse the zero

You will never leave me
You dependent patriot Blinded by the orders of your heart

I guess we’ll be getting on
I think we’re getting on
We’re getting on
