Текст песни Falling For It (David Wilcox) с переводом

Look at all the people in their living rooms

With their eyes all glued to the evening news

Catch 'em at a moment when they’re all afraid

And then sell them well on the plans you’ve made

All the citizens who listen and believe

Falling just the same

Falling into line 'cause we did not know

Of the bait and switch and the shadow show

When you faked the truth

To make your claims

You played our fears

For your own gain

Then we needed a leader and you’re all we had

So we told ourselves you were not that bad

You took the opportunity to have your way

While our wounds still bled we were led astray

All the the fears that came descending on us then

Falling just the same

Falling like the towers in a cloud that hung

So it blocked our view and it hid the sun

When our eyes were down

In all that pain

With your slight of hand

You cast the blame

You said that it was over when it had just begun

Saying, job well done as if the war was won

But all of us are watching as the numbers climb

Of the killed and injured, dead and dying

All the soldiers that have fallen in this war

Falling just the same

Falling for the trick that you played on us

When you made those lies and betrayed our trust

As if this war

Was just your game

You’re breaking down

Our country’s name
