Union Town - Singing Our World Into Existence lyrics

'My title comes from the practice of Australian Aboriginal people who, during their period of 'dream-time', sing their world into existence' (Chatwin, 1987) Can you see the faces without names on the streets? Too much time alone, robbed of identity Battered minds live bitter times Severed heads through twisted lies Eyes of fire and ice Pushing at the back While dying at the front Hear us singing our song The chorus of our song bleeds Bodies white and trembling shiver underneath The facades of wealth and image, falsely conceived Battered minds live bitter times Severed heads through twisted lies Eyes of fire and ice Now the lights go out over Europe Will we ever see them burn again? Everything is alright, yeah everything is alright Because we fooled ourselves into believing One identity, one world, one rationality Singing our world into existence Sung it loud without hesitance Who wrote these words we've got stuck in our minds? Singing out, throats bleeding Who wrote these songs we' re stuck in repeating? Who wrote the songs we have stuck in our minds? Singing our world into existence Singing our world into existence
