Broken Skin Lyrics

Broken Skin by Nitin Sawhney

Today at 15.45 hours

India conducted 3 underground nuclear tests

In the bogram range

 

Hope falls softly from your hands

Dreams burn deap beneath the land

Time casts shadows overall

Sweating fever rain or river

Brushing winds beneath your call

 

Broken skin distant fear

Shattered worlds of endless tears

Hidden fires distant lies

Burried hopes beneath the cries

Broken skin distant fears

Silent lips so far so near

 

Silence it is every hope apart

Two flames burn deep beneath one heart

Teardrops flow faster with the tide

Raging over calmer waters

As the timeless land divides

 

Broken skin distant fear

Shattered worlds of endless tears

Hidden fires distant lies

Burried hopes beneath the cries

Broken skin distant fears

Silent lips so far so near

 

Broken distant shattered

Hidden distant burried

Broken distant silent

 

Cold games repeat on eastern shores

Strong winds blow over colder wars

Proud lips stay silent in the rain

There are half a million voices in the song without a name

 

Broken distant shattered

Hidden distant burried

Broken distant silent

 

Shattered

Hidden distant burried

Broken distant silent

 

(so far so close)

Shattered

(there are half a million voices)

Distant

Shattered

Distant

Shattered

(there are half a million voices)

 

Just 5 miles from indias nuclear test site

Children play in the shade of the village water tank

Here in the rajahstan desert people say they're proud their country showed their nuclear capability
