lyrics
I never got a chance to plan my escape
It was just a sudden outburst
Hands were joined and I was dragged along
Oh, I didn’t mind the feeling!
Had we known what we were up against
Maybe reason could have stopped this
But when power laughs in palace halls
Boring logics get frustrating
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
A reflection of my fear
I remembered why we came here
How change had felt so near
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
All the things we never say
All the love and desperation
How disappointment followed rage
I’ve read books about "offing the pigs"
I’ve been followed by patrol cars
I’ve seen the terror in the eyes of friends
As the iron fist came crashing
And dogs kept barking up the wrong trees
As we waited for our roses
Oh, how we hoped to see a burning bush
In urban deserts with mirages
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
A reflection of my fear
I remembered why we came here
How change had felt so near
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
All the things we never say
All the love and desperation
How disappointment followed rage
It was just a sudden outburst
Hands were joined and I was dragged along
Oh, I didn’t mind the feeling!
Had we known what we were up against
Maybe reason could have stopped this
But when power laughs in palace halls
Boring logics get frustrating
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
A reflection of my fear
I remembered why we came here
How change had felt so near
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
All the things we never say
All the love and desperation
How disappointment followed rage
I’ve read books about "offing the pigs"
I’ve been followed by patrol cars
I’ve seen the terror in the eyes of friends
As the iron fist came crashing
And dogs kept barking up the wrong trees
As we waited for our roses
Oh, how we hoped to see a burning bush
In urban deserts with mirages
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
A reflection of my fear
I remembered why we came here
How change had felt so near
Oh, I saw it in your eyes
All the things we never say
All the love and desperation
How disappointment followed rage
