The Bear/Coltan as Cotton
How can I describe it? It's a feeling
That no one would talk about, but everybody knows
How to get inside it and reveal it
When pain is the government that governs the unknown
When the bear comes from the mountain
With its teeth and claws exposed
And the girl who cries is justified
As everybody knows
And the soldiers sing the chorus
And the chorus marks a sign
Where dollar signs are all unaligned with every war and crime
How can I describe it? It's a feeling
That no one would talk about, but everybody knows
How to get inside it and reveal it
When pain is the government that governs the unknown
When the blood falls from the trumpet
And the music fills the streets
And the ones who cry are justified
And suffer from defeat
And the soldiers sing the chorus
And the chorus marks a sign
When our designs are underlined
With every war and crime
How can I describe it? It's a feeling
That no one would talk about, but everybody knows
