Red Barked Trees

Lyrics

Find yourself in opposition Rid yourself of superstitions Deploy a mask, get night time vision Safety off, get in position A mother's guilt, a daughter's pain The father failed to take the blame The search is on, in southern seas To find the healing, red barked trees A day of pain, of push and shove A hidden strength in velvet gloves Sky writing planes sketch oaths above In graphic loops an act of love Traders rampage, on the loose Dealers howl and hurl abuse The market growls it eats the weak Buys children farms in busy streets A privileged few, a charmed elite Can slash and burn as they retreat The search is on, in southern seas To find the healing, red barked trees
