[Verse 1]
I've seen a thousand people kneel in silence
I've seen them face the rifles with their songs
I always thought that we could end the killing
But now I live in fear that I was wrong
The killer and the cynic waltz together
Their eyes are turned into their skulls
They do not feel the bullets in the bodies
They do not hear the dolphin or the gull
[Chorus]
If we do these things in the greenwood
What will happen in the dry?
[Verse 2]
If we don't stop there'll come a time when women
With barren womb will bitterly rejoice
With breasts that dry and never fill with promise
Gladly they'll not suckle one more life
Is this then the whimper and the ending?
The impotence of people raised on fear
A fear that blinds the sense of common oneness
That common love and life or death are here
[Chorus]
If we do these things in the greenwood (If we do these things)
What will happen in the dry?
I've seen a thousand people kneel in silence
I've seen them face the rifles with their songs
I always thought that we could end the killing
But now I live in fear that I was wrong
The killer and the cynic waltz together
Their eyes are turned into their skulls
They do not feel the bullets in the bodies
They do not hear the dolphin or the gull
[Chorus]
If we do these things in the greenwood
What will happen in the dry?
[Verse 2]
If we don't stop there'll come a time when women
With barren womb will bitterly rejoice
With breasts that dry and never fill with promise
Gladly they'll not suckle one more life
Is this then the whimper and the ending?
The impotence of people raised on fear
A fear that blinds the sense of common oneness
That common love and life or death are here
[Chorus]
If we do these things in the greenwood (If we do these things)
What will happen in the dry?
