Communist Eyes

Communist Eyes

Germs
(album: MIA: The Complete Anthology)

I´m looking through
Communist eyes
I´m seeing planes in bloodshot skies
I see the flag of a working people
Who conceal the lies in the stars
and sickle
It´s a double edge

Communist eyes-c´mon inside
I can´t ever find the way out
Communist eyes-lost inside
I never get a day out

I´m looking through Communist eyes
All I see is an old man´s alibi
There´s a world outside
but I´m unaware
I open my books but the pages stare
It´s a double edge

Communist eyes-all so blind
I can´t even play the game now

I´m living through Communist times
I wave my flag and hold me head high
I can feel the glory of my
comrades in masses
But I´m waiting for the day
when this madness passes
It´s a double edge...
