Autobiography Of A Nation Lyrics

Autobiography Of A Nation lyrics

write these words back down inside we have burned their villages 
and all the
people in them died and we adopt their customs 
and everythign they say we
steal all the dreams they had we kill
still we all sleep sound tonight
is
this what you wanted to hear
we erased their images and dance
and replaced
them with borders and flags
everything they say we stole
at the top of
this timeline you'll rmember
this is the lipstick in the collar and in my
own life
i've seen it in the mirror 
sometimes at the cost of others
hopes 
so write these words back down inside that's where you need it

the most
and without conviction of heart you will never feel it at
all
yeah we all dance to the same beat when we're marching yeah
the tv
tells us everytihgn we need to know
and this scene is painted in all the
fashions of the moment 
and history is all the same
everything you say
you stole 
every dream you dreamt you bought
