Midnight Oil - Maralinga Lyrics:

Lyrics to Maralinga by Midnight Oil:

Correct These Lyrics

I come from a land of wide open spaces
Where the world turns around us and we just follow suit
There's heat in the air and peace reigns supreme
Got white flags on the clothes lines and the deals are never clean

In the wind, the ashes fly
The poison crown, the charcoal ground

And if you can't see the smile in me
That's where I want to be

There's only God, There's only Christ
Think I'll lie down, for just a while

And if you can't see the smile in me
Well that's where i want to be

And the grass became granite, and the sky a black sheet
Our bed was a graveyard, we couldn't feel our blistered feet
And in the moaning and groaning and sighing of death
And the silence that followed, and the very harsh reality

So we watch and check them out and listen as we learn
Throw the pearls before the swine, ebb and flow and turning tide
Yes we watch and catch them up, no matter how they jump
The pigs will have to come to ground,we've got to make it happen now
It's not really that new, try and make it happen now
What are we to do, maybe there's a chance for you

All around, an eerie sound
Their dreams a cloud, their world in shrouds
In the wind, the ashes fly
Not much time, but time to try
And if you can't see the smile in me, that's 'cause I want to be
I want to be here at the end,
We have to be here at the end

(Moginie/Garrett)
