Lyrics of Where Are They Now by Strangeways
They said they would give all they had to give
They offered their hand with the will to live
The word of the white man
Words they would never understand
It wouldn′t take long 'til they realized
The promise of peace was about to die
They′d fight for their honor
They'd fight for the freedom of the land
And over and over
I've asked myself what′s going on
We can′t hide in silence for too long
So tell me
(Where are they now) why should it be this way
(Where are they now) I only feel the shame
(Where are they now) their time will come again
We can't walk away
I just don′t know why we've never learned
We live with the gun as our only friend
The word of the white man
Words that will always be the same
And over and over
I′ve asked myself what's going on
We can′t hide in silence for too long
So tell me
(Where are they now) why should it be this way
(Where are they now) I only feel the shame
(Where are they now) their time will come again
We can't walk away
(Where are they now) the story's still the same
(Where are they now) I only feel the shame
(Where are they now) their time will come again
(Where are they now)
(-Solo-)
(Where are they now) why should it be this way
(Where are they now) I only feel the shame
(Where are they now) their time will come again
We can′t walk away
(Where are they now) the story′s still the same
(Where are they now) I only feel the shame
(Where are they now) their time will come again
(Where are they now)
(Where are they now)
I only feel the shame
Their time will come again
