Fault Lines Songtext
von LRDEE

Under Table Mountain where the clouds roll in
City lights flicker but the powers dim
Durban waves crash where the streets run dry
People marching, singing who am I?

Another promise lost in the pouring rain
Another leader talks, but it sounds the same

Oh, we′re standing on these Fault Lines
Falling through the cracks in time
We're more than colors, more than names
Burn the script, rewrite the game

From the Cape Town docks to the Joburg mines
Silver tongues draw deeper lines
Empty pockets, broken trust
Still they tell us, wait your turn, adjust, adjust


Another promise lost in the pouring rain
Another leader talks, but it sounds the same

Oh we′re standing on these Fault Lines
Falling through the cracks in time
We're more than colors more than names
Burn the script, rewrite the game

Look to the mountain, look to the sea
How did we lose what was meant to be?
History's heavy, but the sky′s still blue
What kind of world are we breaking into?

Oh, we′re standing on these Fault Lines
Falling through the cracks in time
We're more than colors, more than names
Burn the script, rewrite the game


Cape Town′s burning, Durban cries
But the spirit's strong behind these eyes
No more fighting, no more chains
This is our home, we′re here to stay
