Said the burn to the wall You're new to this place I have pearls to share Of how this world rests and wakes In the borderlands It's barren and it's bleak You can't confine the water Within this creek
Said the wall to the burn Six years until I've gripped I'm ten feet wide to the Tyne And a turf wall to Solway's coastal drift In the borderlands It's barren and it's brisk Roman power, gains by the hour Brick upon brick
We breath in We breath in
Said the burn to the wall There's use within your tumbled brick You're slumped in the ground Here's a chance to repurpose relics In the borderlands You're making your home Nature's gift will give you A licence to roam
We breath in, the breath of our common land We breath in, the breath of our common land
Said the wall to the burn I'm ready to make my peace Fallen by design Insects outlived Roman chiefs In the borderlands My soul is in decline It's time to be scattered, where it matters Transposed in locals lives
We breath in, the breath of our common land We breath in, the breath of our common land We breath in, the breath of our common land We breath in, the breath of our common landTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
