lyrics

Ghost of Conscience
(©2011 Anders/Bohm)

To live a loss like this
Their extraordinary lie
And their crimes so broad
My too common sacrifice
A political prisoner
At least 'til '24

I never chose to be their
Ghost of conscience
Not another innocent
In a prison cell

And if they define my life
Just one way now
To live another version of
A no-exit hell

So many nights like this
Gone my ordinary life
But so many before me
Made a heavier sacrifice
A people held prisoner
I'm just one of many more

We never chose to be their
Ghost of conscience
No more native innocents
In reservation cells

And if they define our lives
Just one way now
To live another version of
A no-exit hell

Keep on blowin' and chasin' the sun
The wind must keep on blowin' chase' the sun
Blowin' like a hurricane, chasin' the sun
Keep on blowin' Wind Chases the Sun

We never chose to be their
Ghost of conscience
No more native innocents
In reservation cells

And if they define our lives
Just one way now
To live another version of
A no-exit hell
