Painted It White Lyrics

Nobody learns, seems like everybody
turns to the screen
To watch it pass but not to ask you
"What does it mean?"
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e91890-karine_polwart~painted_it_white_lyrics.html ]
We believed.

So here we are, we're not so far
from where we could be
You've got a gun, the one
you say will keep us all free

So free that you
Can bomb a blue horizon to black
Then steal away the day
And never, never give it back

We believed.
