Big Country - In Your Homeland Lyrics

You know how I choose to be
The one who writes about the sea
The one who calls a man to be
About the quiet things

And I know I fear it in the street
The night I found the factory
I could let the company
Life will never end

I see what is done in my homeland
I see what is done in my name
Can you see what is done in your homeland
Can you see what is done in your name

So I’ll be what I’ll always be and destiny
For every broken life I see
Will open up my heart

They say we have a chance to be
Successful in democracy
Time has said the dice will be
Were loaded from the start

I see what is done in my homeland
I see what is done in my name
Can you see what is done in your homeland
Can you see what is done in your name

I see what is done in my homeland
I see what is done in my name
Can you see what is done in your homeland
You see what is done in your name

I see what is done in my homeland
I see and it fills me with shame
Can you see what is done in your homeland
If you see does it fill you with shame

I see what is done in my homeland
I’ve seen and I must take the blame
Can you see what is done in your homeland
You’ve seen and you must take the blame
