lyrics

Bring that red sky in
Tide out, mud shining
Unredeemed island

Stranger when it snows
What does the land know
Ten thousand years softened in the peat
It's underneath my feet

Carbonated myth
Disintegrating
We just watch it spin

We're dead or alive
Only life has bagpipes
We'll do something to pick you up
Dancing sardined in the pub

The fells are frozen like a mirror
The government are class killers
The losers always love the winners
We've lost our ground again
Baby on a rollercoaster
The winter geese are flying over
Someone on twitter's getting sober
I'm staying here with them

Near miss, death kiss
Has England made its promises
It's just the wind that gives body to the flag
Could justice be salvaged
Is it likelier than this
It could live here or any other land
