I thought there was a difference between selling and stealing And they said there was an abyss ‘tween warfare and feeling And I thought that eternity would be here forever And I was sure that always opposes to never So how can you sell what is mine? And I had in mind that we’d sing of our land Carefully held by our ancestors’ hand that pacifist cultures would live in peace and the lakes would be kissed by the summer breeze So how can you sell what is mine? Never knew that generosity would be met with greed that dismantling our backyard would proceed So how can you sell what’s mine.
