Banks Tony - The Border lyrics

Dry forever the sun blinds off the whitewashed walls

Unbelieving she looks up from the unswept floor

You don't have to go you don't have to tell me

All that talk of lofty causes wrapped in foolish pride

That's a lie

That you don't have to tell me

I don't wanna hear how wisdom walks beside you

Or how God is inside you again

No wire marks the border

No fence or wall

No town breaks this horizon

Nothing at all

Dust surrounds her the men go hungry for disaster

All they leave behind are

The old and useless and the broken

That never will be mended

I don't wanna hear you're captured by the madness

Of ideas long discredited from other people's minds

They're all lies

That you don't have to tell me

All that comes of this is poverty and hardship

Still you don't absorb a word I say
Banks Tony - The Border - http://motolyrics.com/banks-tony/the-border-lyrics.html
But now there is a border

A line of blood

Now men patrol the border

But they're dead

Somewhere a bird is flying

Somewhere the wind is sighing

I hope it brings you comfort

Cos it's surely no good to me

This wind blows me down

and cuts me like a knife

And now the darkness and coldness

That freezes out illusion

Restores the picture gives back the pieces

And lays them on the empty floor

I don't want to hear so you don't have to tell me

How you rewrite history a little every day

Till it's lies

That you don't have to tell me

I don't want to hear how good it really has been

How wonderful the troubles we shared

I don't want to hear so you don't have to tell me

I don't need your comfort I just need your company
