Eric Anders — Remains In Me lyrics

Lyrics

Bitter frost
They try to keep warm
Wet blankets worn over heads
At what cost
Guns pointed down
So many innocents dead
What remains in me Of manifest destiny
Why give medals of honor
For Wounded Knee
Pine Ridge wars
Dick Wilson’s thugs
Backed by thugs of the Feds
And what for
Guns pointed up More dead at Jumping Bull Ranch
What remains in me Of manifest destiny
Why give medals of honor
For Wounded Knee
Have we lost
Wind Chases the Sun
Continues his mournful ghost dance
And we’re taught
The aboriginal sin
On which our divided state stands
What remains in me Of manifest destiny
What chance of honor
For genocide’s progeny
What remains in me Of manifest destiny
What chance of honor
For genocide’s progeny
Bitter frost
They try to keep warm
Wet blankets worn over heads
Have we lost
Wind Chases the Sun
Continues his mournful ghost dance
