red on the borders

how i wish
there'd be a great big fire
scorch this all down

how i wish
there'd be a refutation
of these things I see

how i wish
the people would lead themselves
a better way

how i wish
there'd be a revolution
of the human mind

but I see red on the borders
and I hear strained voices
still calling still calling

how i wish
there'd be a way of telling
what you know

how I wish
there'd be a new salvation
for all the lost

how I wish
the people would show each other
a better way

how I wish
there'd be a resolution
of the human mind

but I see red on the borders
and I hear strained voices
still calling still calling

This is very deep... I like it. Unfortunately we don't always get what we wish for...

I write. I record. Often what I write is attempting to capture a moment in an almost photographic way - but not necessarily visually descriptive - more the shape than the colour. more..
