about

Originally recorded in 2020. Pete's vocals re-recorded and remixed in 2022.

I should point out that this song is written from the perspective of 3 different fictional characters and the guy in the first verse isn't a nice person, so the sentiments portrayed in those lyrics do not reflect my own feelings.

lyrics

[Pete]
This land was our land
We wrote the history books
Though there may be some pages missing
We came, we saw, we took
I built my castle now
There's no more room to share
With these wetbacks and their backpacks
No, we don't want them here

[Yuki]
My family's gone
The gangs took all our food
I'm moving on
To somewhere I can build myself a home
I've travelled so far, it's been so hard
And I don't want no trouble
All they see are fools and thieves
I don't expect no sympathy from you

I don't want no guests inside this house
I'm inside looking out
Of my window
As I dive into my doubts about you

[Endaf]
We saw them coming from afar
pacing upstream
armed and ready
Didn't look too friendly
Now awkward facts are forgotten
language is trodden
under feet, come in peace
and then slaughter with ease

I don't want no guests inside this house
I'm inside looking out
Of my window
As I dive into my doubts about you
