lyrics

The years fly by and the birds fill the sky
And the love of my life is sitting by the window
While the boys with the guns and the girls who are bombs
And the preachers of hate are just a day away.

And it’s all so far
But it’s all so near
And it’s all so new
But it’s all so old

So what’s a fairer way
Won’t let it all slip away

So the boats and the yachts I can see from my house
Just floating there doing nothing in the water
While someone walks to an empty well and the buckets on their backs
Take the skin on their shoulders away

And it’s all so far
But it’s all so near
And it’s all so new
But it’s all so old

Do what the money says
The banks call and the world obeys
