Whitewash Songtext
von Douglas Dare

We will lie in wood and drawers
Built to keep us from the floor
And dare not move, till curtain′s call

Then, we would stand, in crooked lines
Hands behind, our blackened spines
And dare not speak, till we were told
In silence, we would fold

Oh, the whitewash, burned our eyes
The whitewash, kept us alive
And the whitewash, may fade

But I will never forget


All I wanted was life
But instead, got life inside
And they shaved off, all of my hair
Like Samson, left powerless and bare

Oh, the whitewash, burned our eyes
The whitewash, kept us ali-ive
And the whitewash, may fade

But I will never forget
No I can never forget

Oh, the whitewash, took my sun
The whitewash, cover me up
And the whitewash, may fade in time
But I

Can never forget
Oh, the whitewash
The whitewash
The whitewash
