Mei Mei Lyrics

Mama I don't want to run away

You know that I could never stay

If this letter never reaches home

I wave goodbye to you and mei mei

You know the placards and the common way

You wore the hat that never fades

You know the hatred for the grave

Of everything you lost that day

The rice grows faster than the hands can cut it down

I can see it rising in the wind

Withered palaces will never stop the rain from falling

In between the cracks until the cracks turn into veins

Flowing through another reign

Don't fear the truth that holds the world away

Don't fly the flag that never waves

I saw a soldier with his gun

Listening to the v.o.a.

I curse the poster in the people's way

I curse the bottle to its grave

And even so I know this rage

Connects me with the ones I hate

Time will lay its peonies upon your bed

Fate will hold you helpless in its net

And like a quickly fading song

How soon the world forgets
