Bell X1 - Sons and Daughters lyrics
[Bell X1 - Sons and Daughters lyrics]
What will they make of us
In a thousand years?
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
No bowls or coins or arrowheads
More like old phones and plastic bags
To the plastic islands in the sea I'll go
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
Made of six pack rings snagged
On a dolphin's nose
That's where my name, my name will live on
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too many distractions
Too much good TV what will they make of us
In a thousand years?
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
After the wars turn us each on each
Too busy to learn, too hard to teach
Could not let go of the good times
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
Could not leave it well in the ground
No white knight, no super-substitute
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too many distractions
Too much good TV
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too cute pictures
Too much in my feed
Oh, my sweet boy oh my sweet girl
We'll hold ourselves to the morning
We'll hold ourselves to the flame
One hope, one heart one life, one go
In a thousand years?
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
No bowls or coins or arrowheads
More like old phones and plastic bags
To the plastic islands in the sea I'll go
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
Made of six pack rings snagged
On a dolphin's nose
That's where my name, my name will live on
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too many distractions
Too much good TV what will they make of us
In a thousand years?
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
After the wars turn us each on each
Too busy to learn, too hard to teach
Could not let go of the good times
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
Could not leave it well in the ground
No white knight, no super-substitute
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too many distractions
Too much good TV
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
I hope you can forgive yourselves
And I hope you forgive me
Oh, my distant sons and daughters
There were too cute pictures
Too much in my feed
Oh, my sweet boy oh my sweet girl
We'll hold ourselves to the morning
We'll hold ourselves to the flame
One hope, one heart one life, one go
