lyrics

Displaced and detached
From her mother’s arms she’s dragged
Bloodlines corrupted through rape
To colonise her mind and whiten her skin
Songlines disrupted by hate to destroy culture and kin
Decades on, her descendants are torn
From their father’s hand, they’re wrought
Stolen again
Removed for “protection”
Generations tied through time by trauma and poverty

Steal the child to keep her safe
From all she is? From who she needs?
Or maybe just from you?
Sorry means you don’t do it again
Sorry

Forcing black circles into your square frame.
“All let us rejoice” in your shame.
Never learning from our past mistakes
We repeat, and lines of culture break
Makarrata to bring peace
We were never young and free
The oldest lasting culture we know
Persists despite the “salvation” - you bestow

Yet the longest surviving civilisation
Outlives your mission to civilise

There is some real (well-deserved) anger here in this post-punk group. Would love to check them out live over here in the states. Bart
