lyrics

There’s a tribute towards the end of the 86
The flowers rode the same line that she did
The agony of loss left upon the faces of strangers
Cold comfort from new acquaintances

Fighting back tears of sadness
Fighting back tears of sorrow
Is this what they wanted for us?
Another body discarded in a park
Another family torn apart
Is this what they wanted for us?

I get the feeling of deja'vu
A silent vigil on the parliament steps
Melbourne should be better than this
We should all be better than this
We stand against this violence just as ten thousand strong stood before
This is for those found in the breaking dawn

When our fathers lost the position at the head of the table how did they rebalance the scale?
Set to fail

Will there be another candle lit night?
Will there be another funeral march?
Is there a home here for us? Is there any hope for us?
Do you get the feeling of deja'vu?
Can we reclaim the night?
We all need to be better than this!
