A Human Named David - The Fortress Lyrics




In the Forrest
There's a fortress
Where revolutionaries came to play
And they speak of
Myth and madness
How the West has gone ahead and lost its way
They've hung portraits
They've told stories
Of the men that paved the way and come before
They've written pledges
Pacts of honor
And hung a photograph of him across the door

Oooh The Fortress
Oooh The Fortress
Oooh The Fortress
It's the safest place on Earth for them to speak
Oooh The Fortress
Oooh The Fortress
Oooh The Fortress
It's the safest place on Earth for them to be

In the forest
There's a fortress
Where the men have
Grown their beards out past the chin
And their souls are
Growing weary
Sipping democratic leaflets mixed with gin
They've read history
Economics
Agriculture and geography of course
All the Business all the profit
Spread across the motherland
In equal parts

Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
It's the safest place on earth for them to speak
Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
It's the safest place on earth for them to be

Death and destruction
Fallacies with function
Societal production
It's the only way to start a revolution
All hail the leader
We never met him either
But you can watch him in the theater
The one who dared to start a revolution

In the Forrest
There's a fortress
That is now tourist trap a kids museum
You can see it
With a ticket
Take a Selfie with a cardboard
Cutout of him
Here the men stayed
Here the men slept
Here they cooked
And washed
And farmed
And read
And prayed
They might have made it
If they stayed here
They were shot as soon as they lifted the gate

Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
Oh he Fortress
It was the safest place on earth for them to speak
Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
Ooh the fortress
It was the safest place of earth for them to be
