you know the memory never quite fades away
you know the millennium draws nearer every day
or so they say, but it'll never be like before
there's something rotten on the inside
there's something hollow at the core
and there's a shadow on the countryside
ever since the civil war
and i know you've been waiting
for the day you can finally rest
i love you and i wish you all the best
the town that you were born in, the green hills of your youth
i don't know how i know they've changed, but i know that it's the truth
and so do you, despite all the prayers that we made
still all that we see is defiled
despite the great price that we paid
despite your best hopes for your child,
just shadows in the glade
i know you still dream at night of the soldiers marching through
i love you and i will remember you
blood drips from the rocks round here, lightning strikes the trees
the same ones where we sealed our pact, breathless on our knees
and trusting in god, but god has gone out from this land
and if this is the wage of our sin
we must live in the fear of his hand
or find a new place to begin,
but you don't want to understand
i know you're still waiting for a world made blameless and new
i love you, but there's nothing i can do
