At 500 Years
More than 500 years ago
In the land of corn
As in the pages of a tale
Lived a happy people
As in the pages of a tale
Lived a happy people
South of paradise
And across the sea
Strange men arrived
To sow desolation
Strange men arrived
To sow desolation
Time and time again they punished their rebellion
Time and time again they punished their rebellion
And wounded to death, it bleeds in the power of their liberation
And wounded to death, it bleeds in the power of their liberation
South of paradise
And across the sea
Strange men arrived
To sow desolation
Strange men arrived
To sow desolation
And they brought death on their ships
And a cross as religion
Terror and genocide
Were the laws of their inquisition
Terror and genocide
Were the laws of their inquisition
But today, like yesterday, they will take the cushion
But today, like yesterday, they will take the cushion
The history of the grandparents seems to have no end
And the history of the grandparents seems to have no end.
