Feet from Sea by The Equatorial Group

Street side windows wear me thin
I hate you now like I loved you then
I’m reduced and tearful like before
And I am not okay

Stand so I can breathe again
As I’m Jesus to the most of them
As I lie here I remember when
It was just okay

The fires burned out by morning
Extinguished by the sun
Roses, smoke and lawmen
Holding guns

I hope they’ll all remember when
Their children all stood up to them
And threw back what was thrown at them
And we were so proud

Cameras twist it round and round
How they knelt before they mowed you down
And that red vest kid is grown up now
And yes he is okay

Are words on cardboard louder
Than opinionated men
Stand up to your fathers
Stand up with your friends
