lyrics

this is a song
for all my nations
sovereign to you
sovereign to me
we collected so many dispositions
like a congress of uncertainty
follow you away
and follow me
we will split hairs
and toss them into the sea
all my expectations
all my doubts
forever no matter
just a ransom to be free
this is a song for my love
i lost her now like i lost her then
this song for my nations
all in arms
for our treason
this is a song
for all my nations
you matter too much to me
though my heart quips along with the day
it finds no moment for solemn restitution
my galley cooks a sigh for the pastime
this is a song for my love
i lost her now like i lost her then
this song for my nations
all in arms
for our treason
