Dark days seem to have found us
Forced us downwards into debt
Just like millions even poorer
Sold with silent disrespect
Don't cry, don't be frightened
We are many, they are few
And your parents will be fighting
Against the hell they'd lead us through
Blue skies for the future
That's the promise I give you
And someday when it's over
You'll see sunlight breaking through
I will take the blame
So you can be the one that got away
Together we can be stronger
In resisting their final goal
They'll arrest us and detain us
For the crime of saying no.
Blue skies for the future
That's the promise I give you
And someday when it's over
You'll see sunlight breaking through
I will take the blame
So you can be the one that got away
