Serj Tankian - Borders Are

Never let you go…

Borders are, the gallows,
Of our collective national egos,
Subjective, lines in sand,
In the water separating everything,

Fear is the cause of separation,
Backed with illicit conversations,
Procured by constant condemnations,
National blood-painted persuasions,

Here’s my song, for the free,
No, it’s not about brazen publicity,
Corprotocracy, what a hypocrisy,
Aristocracy versus democracy,

Fear is the cause of separation,
Backed with illicit conversations,
Procured by constant condemnations,
National blood-painted persuasions,

The king is dead and now we’re dancing in the streets,
As the waters rise we’re merely covering our feet,
I’ll never let you go…never let you go…
I’ll never let you go…never let you go…

Fear is the cause of separation,
Backed with illicit conversations,
Procured by constant condemnations,
National blood-painted persuasions

The king is dead and now we’re dancing in the streets,
As the waters rise we’re merely covering our feet,
Your gods are dead and now we’re dancing in the streets,
As the waters rise we’re merely cowering in defeat,

I’ll never let you go…never let you go…
I’ll never let you go…never let you go…
