Banner Year Lyrics
a song about a historical event, but also about the mis-treating of native Americans, during our civil war we tried to get them on our side by saying we wanted peace, but not all of the english immigrants wanted peace, some just wanted to have the land for their own and didn't want any indians around to get in the way and killed them or moved them shamelessly.
My favorite song off this album. i agree w/ what J35U5 wrote. Tells of our nations mistreatment of the Native Americans.
This one of my favorite FIF songs ever. As said before, it's about the Sand Creek Massacre.
This song was inspired by Dee Brown's "Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee." This book is quoted in another FIF song: "The Day We Killed."
And this is why I'm English, not American.
The first Americans (that did all this crap) where English, man.
The first Americans (that did all this crap) where English, man.
However, were the English justified in their imperialistic pursuits? Maybe you should re-read "The White Man's Burden" or "Kim" or "The Man Who Would Be King" again...

@socialengineer You might want to do just the tiniest amount of reading about your own country. There's a phrase involving glass houses and rocks that's very appropriate here. If you wanted to rank modern countries by historical atrocities committed, as hard as we've been fighting our way up the leaderboards, we still have come close to England.
