How To Live With A CurseFuture History of the Broken Hearted lyrics by Stavesacre
You play the firing squad; IÂ’ll be the target
IÂ’ll just stand here broken-hearted and amazed
You are the angry mob, I hear you callinÂ’
Your Straw-man Gallows swing with
hunger unrestrained
(Chorus)
YouÂ’ve raped my eyes wide open
Now itÂ’s easy to see (itÂ’s easy to see)
How youÂ’d say IÂ’m guilty of treason
So un-American
Just donÂ’t call me blind
Reach over cotton fields; look past the jungles
Post-cards from Wounded Knee and burning desert hells
So long as you can sleep clear of your conscience
Leave future history to those who write so well
(Chorus)
I swear my allegiance to the memory
The shadow
Of a nation that could have been
I swear my allegiance to the memory
The shadow
Of a nation that never was
(Chorus)
