rising in the east

simple scenes that i've never seen

a hole in my living

a kind of in-between

a geisha girl

a hard won world

a wall that divides us from an eastern spell

so we're rising in the east

i've seen america

america

where they're so tired of living

they don't walk alone

and my europeans

just do what they're told to do

that means me and you

me and you

so we're rising in the east

that's why we're rising in the east
