Eclogue 11 Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A certain kindness
Is responsible
For all your blindness
Will you wake and rise to feel the power of the sun
[Chorus]
So turn around, man
This is your own land
Choose the treetops
Over the wasteland
[Refrain]
We’ve updated
Fear and hatred
No longer dictated

For what’s behind us
Is responsible
For all your blindness
[Refrain]
Infinite spin
You cannot win
[Chorus]
So turn around, man
This is your own land
Choose the treetops
Over the wasteland
[Refrain]
For only when you wake to feel the power of the sun
Will you then realize what you havе done
[Refrain]
We’ve updatеd
So we no longer
Will be dictated
[Outro]
Infinite spin
You cannot win
