Shellfish

lyrics

She sells seashells by the sea shore
She lives idly by the sea shore
She will die quietly by the sea shore
She sells seashells by the sea shore


She lives high in a concrete jungle
She dreams and hopes in a tin can basement
She breaks the rules for a taste of freedom
She lives high in a concrete jungle


We work and cry and try to love one another
We scrape and die and accept the hateful
We have the power but we ignore one another
we are the questions and we are the answers

to die for your country on a religious wasteland
to fight ideology and turn to hatred
to stop and think just for one moment
to dream and wake and to hold hope high

Hold Hope High

work and fight and try to love one another
We scrape and die and accept the hateful
We have the power but we ignore one another
we are the questions and we are the answers
