Lyrics: Hayley Reardon

In my country
All the life is hard
In my country
Sacred are the scars
In my country
The rules were written backwards
In the vacant streets of night
And you learn what you once were
As it burns before your eyes
Our ears will ring forever
With the strange perverted truth
That bombs swallowed our music
And war swallowed our youth
In my country
All the life is hard
In my country
Sacred are the scars
In my country
We walk the land of prophets
We walk the land of grief
Heartbreak is an anchor
That will bind you to your feet
And the stain will seep down in us
‘Til all we see is rage
And we’ll say the fight is holy
‘Cause it’s God who set the stage
In my country
All the life is hard
In my country
Sacred are the scars
In my country
Who’s your God
Who’s your God
Choose your God
If freedom was a trophy
For all that you’d endured
Well there comes a time when even you
Would take what you had earned
Oh, cause I’ve seen things you’ll never
I know light from dark
And every curse around me
Put a prayer inside my heart
For my country
For my country
Sacred are the scars
In my country
Who’s your God
Who’s your God
Choose your God
