Karma Debt - The Mynabirds

Here we are in the orchestra

A bullet in our breath

We hold our horns like credit cards

And hope to pay the rent

But when the war is done

And we’ve finished all our songs

Will they offset the colossal karma debt?

The ebony and the ivory

Talked politics again

Then they sat and chewed the scenery

'Til there was nothing left

But will all their peace accords

Amount to something more or something less

Than wasted breath?

I’d give it all, I’d give it all

For a legacy of love

I’d give it all, I’d give it all

For a legacy of love

I’d give it all, I’d give it all

For a legacy of love

Here we are in the orchestra

A bullet in our breath

We hold our horns like credit cards

And hope to pay the rent

But when the war is done

And we’ve finished all our songs

Will they offset the colossal karma debt?
