"Three On A Match" lyrics

"Three On A Match"

They say we live like this
And so we die like this
Nothing will change
But for the same
If we don't resist

The greed from the start
The hate in our hearts
The trust torn apart
In this life we teach them to remember

We are the fire in the eyes of the young population
Once fallen asleep soon to rise to the occasion
You won't find my name
For the future roll call, a leader, a bleeder

A tax, and we fall
A tax, and we fall
Attacks the people
Soon to rise
Soon to rise against
Injustice won't sustain
Injustice won't sustain

'Black for the night
Green for the light
Red for the blood in our arms'

We helped build a nation
And this is the thanks we get
A halflife of broken promises
No, we're not finished yet

They say we live like this
And so we'll die like this
Nothing will change
But for the same
If we don't resist
Attacks (and we fall)
A tax, and we fall
Attacks the people
A tax, and we fall

We helped build a nation
And this is the thanks we get
A halflife of broken promises
No, we're not finished yet

Agreed from the start
No hate in our hearts
No trusts torn apart
In this life

A tax, and we fall
