lyrics

Willing the night, hearing the song
Feeling your heart, child that rings the bell

Where do you stand, in the light of day?
A sovereign being, of your body and soul
A yellow star, and who you are
Light the fire to feel the heart

The child rings the bell, love has a frequency
Are we immune from all that we see?
A war of thyself, the unknown is unlocked
This debt of life as sworn by kings

Chorus
Living behind the ghetto walls
You shouldn’t be here at all
Says the black suited man
And all of the things that were sacred
Were just stolen away

The uniforms of black and grey
The skies are dark and the soul is weak
Strengthened heart and spirits release
We’ll stand strong when day is at end

Pots and pans, sand and fire, factory machines
A righteous hand, liquidation forty-three
In the ghettos that are torn
Down to sooth the dying flowers

To raze the memories and hundreds of years

Chorus
Living behind the ghetto walls
You shouldn’t be here at all
Says the black suited man
And all of the things that were sacred
Were just stolen away

Incinerate my body
Incinerate my soul
But never may you break
Spirit of man woman and child

On the black trains
On those black tracks
To hell, and release the ashes
That fall like snow
