Don't Cover Your Eyes
I've been watching through my fingers
Trying to cover my ears and cover my eyes
at the same time
I've been told it's complicated
By men who cover their ears and cover their eyes
at the same time

Please god never let me search through rubble with my bare hands
Looking for my loved ones
Looking for my parents my partner my best friend
For my neighbour
For a stranger

We've lost twenty thousand voices
Fallen silent long before their time
Kiss their eyes
We've sold bombs and bombs and more bombs
Watch them fall like rain from occupied skies
Or cover your eyes

Please god never let me search through rubble with my bare hands
Looking for my loved ones
Looking for my parents my partner my best friend
For my neighbour
For a stranger

It's been days and weeks and decades
We've been living in colonial dreams, it's just as it seems
How much longer till we wake up
Till we see that nobody's free till everyone's free

Please god never let me search through rubble with my bare hands
Looking for my loved ones
Looking for my parents my partner my best friend
For my neighbour
For a stranger

Ceasefire now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Justice now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Freedom now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Don't cover your eyes
Ceasefire now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Justice now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Freedom now
(Don't cover your eyes)
Don't cover your eyes

Please god never let me search through rubble with my bare hands
