where did our playground go?
a cold wind blows in the distance
our nostrils fill with dust and smoke
hearts are heavy and legs are weary
where did our playground go?
It came about so quickly
and no-one ever could have known
times were many we'd pulled together
where did our playground go?
So many times invaded
but we stood firm, packed tight and bold
vanquished foes with faith and courage
where did our playground go?
This time the fight was easy
but our hearts were tired and we woke up cold
noone thought it necessary
where did our playground go?
we'd try to stick together
but without our precious home
we don't care for anybody
where did our playground go?
it's the strangest of deceptions
there was no love, just territory
and still we ask, blind to the last
where did our playground go?
where did our playground go
it's still there left standing
where did our playground go
it's still there left standing (repeat until pronounced dead by a qualified medical practitioner)
