Sweethearts Lyrics

Sweethearts holding back the tears

Holding on to years of reasons

Why we should never be here

Leaders and their palm readers

Feed us to where we disappear

Brave hearts fighting without fear

Fighting for their gods and leaders

Who are never there

And graveyards full of sweethearts

Who need us to do more than care

It's mine; it's what I'll fight for

It's rightfully mine; and my world says so

And you with your new story

Don't you know the glory of our ancestors lives here

Come on boys we've got no choice

Come on hoist the flag; what do we wait for?

Yeah, let's go straight for the heart into the red zone

And we'll keep on throwing rocks

Till they get back in their box and disappear

Sweethearts living with the pain

Living through the change of seasons there alone

And the sweethearts in their lonely deep dark caves

Waiting for their dear departed brave hearts to come home

And then sunlight shining on their faces

Released from their cages

To those who hold them dear

Into the arms of their sweethearts

Where those brave hearts can never disappear
