Alexisonfire - The Dead Heart Lyrics

We don't serve your country, don't serve your king
Know your custom, don't speak your tongue
White man came took everyone

We don't serve your country, don't serve your king
White man listen to the songs we sing
White man came took everything

We carry in our hearts the true country and that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry and that cannot be broken

We don't serve your country, we don't serve your king
Know your custom, don't speak your tongue
White man came took everyone

We don't need protection, don't need your hand
Keep your promise on where we stand
We will listen we'll understand

We carry in our hearts the true country and that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry and that cannot be broken
We carry in our hearts the true country and that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry and that cannot be broken

Mining companies, pastoral companies
Uranium companies, collected companies
Got more right than people, got more say than people

Forty thousand years
Can make a difference to the state of things
The dead heart lives here
