Billy Boyd - "Rip it up" lyrics
Something must be done
A western face cries from the pages
See a child with a gun
The same mistake runs through the ages
See a bullet burn
Far from a country with childhood things
Watch the tables turn
They say they're in the wrong hands but who are we'
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are headlines and they won't go away
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
These are all our days
How many times before we try
We have the means to end
A genocide won't turn the tide
Ignore a common end
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
A western face cries from the pages
See a child with a gun
The same mistake runs through the ages
See a bullet burn
Far from a country with childhood things
Watch the tables turn
They say they're in the wrong hands but who are we'
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are headlines and they won't go away
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
These are all our days
How many times before we try
We have the means to end
A genocide won't turn the tide
Ignore a common end
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are headlines and they won't go away
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
'cause these are all our days
So where do we turn
To get some truth in it
A breath of time holds a thousand voices
Should we get use to it
When the prophet's gone and war rejoices
See the pictures run
Knowing eyes on a wall of death
They know no return
We turn the page and shake our heads
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines and they won't go away
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
'cause these are all our days
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
'cause these are all our days
So where do we turn
To get some truth in it
A breath of time holds a thousand voices
Should we get use to it
When the prophet's gone and war rejoices
See the pictures run
Knowing eyes on a wall of death
They know no return
We turn the page and shake our heads
Rip it up
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines and they won't go away
More than I can say
I wanna rip it up
But these are our headlines
'cause these are all our days
