New Order – State of The Nation
You can walk, or you can run
You don´t have to be someone
I went on a summer cruise
Upon an ocean born to lose
My brother said that he was dead
I saw his face and shook my head
Can you see where we can´t be
We´re losing our blood in the sea
cause it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Yes, it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
From my home I traveled far
I drove in my stolen car
When it broke down, I kissed the ground
cause I don´t kiss when you´re around
I don´t find that I have been
The portrait of an only son
If that´s the case, then who could tell
Where my story had begun?
Cause it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Yes, it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Yes, the state of the nation
That´s causing deprivation
Oh, the state of the nation
That´s causing deprivation
Even now, I´m all alone
Behind a wall that´s made of stone
I think about where we have been
And all the sights that could be seen
I know it all could be worthwhile
If only I could force a smile
Now we turn our backs to the sea
The shame of a nation we´ll never be
Cause it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Yes, it´s the state of the nation
That´s holding our salvation
Oh, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
Yes, the state of the nation
Is causing deprivation
