State Of The Nation - (7'' Edit) [2015 Remastered Version]
You can walk, or you can run
You don't have to be someone
I went on a summer cruise
Upon an ocean born to lose
My brother said that he was dead
I saw his face and shook my head
Can you see where we can't be
We're losing our blood in the sea
'Cause it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
Is causing deprivation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
Is causing deprivation
From my home I traveled far
I drove in my stolen car
When it broke down, I kissed the ground
'Cause I don't kiss when you're around
I don't find that I have been
The portrait of an only son
If that's the case, then who could tell
Where my story had begun?
'Cause it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's causing deprivation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's causing deprivation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
You don't have to be someone
I went on a summer cruise
Upon an ocean born to lose
My brother said that he was dead
I saw his face and shook my head
Can you see where we can't be
We're losing our blood in the sea
'Cause it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
Is causing deprivation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
Is causing deprivation
From my home I traveled far
I drove in my stolen car
When it broke down, I kissed the ground
'Cause I don't kiss when you're around
I don't find that I have been
The portrait of an only son
If that's the case, then who could tell
Where my story had begun?
'Cause it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's holding our salvation
Yes, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's causing deprivation
Oh, it's the state of the nation (state of the nation)
That's causing deprivation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
State of the nation
