PHIL COLLINS - Colours lyrics
rate meDeep inside the border<br>Children are crying<br>Fighting for food<br>Holding their heads<br>Breaking their bread with a stone<br><br>All along the roadside<br>People are standing<br>Watching the sun<br>Shielding their eyes<br>Brushing the flies from their face<br><br>Tell me, what can you say<br>Tell me, who do you blame<br>Like a mirror you see yourself<br>These people each have a name<br><br>All around the township<br>Young men are dying<br>(of) hunger and thirst<br>The well has run dry<br>The tears from her eye feeds her son<br><br>Tell me...<br><br>You can say you're pulling back<br>We see the pictures everywhere<br>But what we don't see is what's<br>Going on behind the closed doors<br>And you don't seem to care<br><br>Do you expect me to believe you<br>How can you really think<br>You can take your horse down to the water<br>Hold a gun at his head<br>And make him drink<br><br>No matter what you say, it never gets any better<br>No matter what you do, we never see any change<br><br>People living without rights<br>Without their dignity<br>How loud does one man have to shout<br>To earn his right to be free<br><br>You can keep your toy soldiers<br>To segregate the black and white<br>But when the dust settles<br>And the blood stops running<br>How do you sleep at night? <br><br>No matter what you say...<br><br>What makes you so high and mighty<br>What makes you so qualified<br>You can sit there and say<br>How many have their freedom<br>But how many more have died<br><br>You decide to sit in judgement<br>Trying to play God yourself<br>Someday soon the buck is gonna stop<br>Stop with you and noone else<br><br>No matter...
