| Midnight Oil – Forgotten Years Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song is about WW1, with some specific references to Australia "Few are the sins....upon the son"- the Father is Britain, Australia is the son, the sin is the war "Signatures stained with tears"- Australians weren't conscripted, the signed up, and would regret it "Our shoreline was....strong to contain"- Australia wasnt invaded because of those who fought an died to protect it, the calm we breath is peace, the feeling is freedom This is simply a song about remembering the sacrifice made by all soldiers during war |
