There's a spirit floating on the water

There's a shadow lying down by the shore

Wasn't he there a year before?

A sacrifice for the coat he's wearing

A 'paradise' for the lady

Who dares colour him red upon the shore?



We carry the burden upon our shoulder

We carry their lives in the palm of our hand

Don't you care about the state you're in

Or don't you understand?



See the spirit floating on the water

See the shadow lying down by the shore

Wasn't he there some years before?





We carry the burden upon our shoulder

We carry their lives in the palm of our hand

Don't you care about the state you're in

Or don't you understand?
