Cos you don't need your weapons now
You've got to hold on to your world
Just stop and put your weapons down
You've got to hold on to your world
This fading world
This land
Is ahead of it's time
Oh but you know it's past it's prime
In so many ways
This land
Is a miserable rock
Stuck like a foot at the end of a sock
Full of razor blades
Is mine
The right to defend at all
Is mine
To fight to the end I know
My hand
Can't hold back the seas no more
But it's not from man that we need defending
'Cos you don't need your weapons now
You've got to hold on to your world
Just stop and put your weapons down
You've got to hold on to your world
This fading world
This land
Has damaged the world
How many times these toes have curled
I've heard many tales
This land
Is riddled with lies
How many told how the seas would rise
At such heavy scale
Is mine
To know what I've seen and own
Is mine
The suffering and screams at home
My hand
Can't find New Orleans at all
This desperate land that seems to be ending
'Cos you don't need your weapons now
You've got to hold on to your world
Just stop and put your weapons down
You've got to hold on to your world
