The Tossers - Caoin (lament) lyrics

Sing homeland smile Our sad and lonely weakness will be gone for a while Sing homeland smile And give our motherland back her style Not across an ocean, not across a sea But in our own home town where you want to be Past an armored car and a soldier you see Sigh a breath now lift your strong voice up and sing Release the pressure from your chest Of the sadness of your friends now that you long for and miss And although they may tell you you're not worth a wage They can't restrict you from grieving in your own chosen way Look up to the stars at the end of the day And remember that we're here and it's a mystery And remember the ones who have gone away And accept a part of life now that we cannot curb or sway
