Lyrics

[00:23.03] A cry for help, a hint of anaesthesia,
[00:29.48] The sound from broken homes,
[00:30.97] We used to always meet here.
[00:36.61] As he lays asleep, she takes him in her arms,
[00:43.20] Some things I have to do, but I don't mean you harm.
[01:04.07] A worried parent's glance, a kiss, a last goodbye,
[01:10.92] Hands him the bag she packed, the tears she tries to hide,
[01:18.07] A cruel wind that bows down to our lunacy,
[01:24.72] And leaves him standing cold here in this colony.
[01:53.39] I can't see why all these confrontations,
[02:00.04] I can't see why all these dislocations,
[02:07.37] No family life, this makes me feel uneasy,
[02:14.18] Stood alone here in this colony.
[02:21.24] In this colony, in this colony, in this colony, in this colony.
[02:42.72] Dear God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
[02:46.63] God in his wisdom made you understand.
[02:50.04] God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
[02:53.41] God in his wisdom made you understand.
[02:56.97] God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
[03:00.24] God in his wisdom made you understand.
[03:04.23] God in his wisdom took you by the hand,
[03:07.54] God in his wisdom made you understand.
[03:10.70] In this colony, in this colony, in this colony, in this colony.
