we have always lived in the compound - the dead milkmen lyrics

Loading...

(“we rolling?”)
(“okay.”)

the trucks arrive
the cameras roll
we give a little tour
of our home
from the workshop to the kitchen
where we bake our bread
to the part of the yard where we bury our dead

we have always lived
we have always lived
we have always lived in the compound

brother tells us stories
about the world outside
of the murders and the rapes
thе arsons and the suicides
but herе behind our wall
that’s nearly 20 feet high
we are free to follow the words
of our father in the sky

we have always lived
we have always lived
we have always lived in the compound
and every night we gather
in the common room
to discuss the day’s events
and give thanks for our food
and every day we gather
in the common room
to read stories from the book
while we await our doom

we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here

the elders, they remind us
to fear heretics and imposters
they say “the monsters cannot get us
if we are the monsters”

we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here

the trucks arrive
the cameras roll
we give a little tour
of our home
from the only window we can see the sky
to the part of the yard where our bones will lie
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
we have always lived here
and we cannot escape here

- the dead milkmen lyrics
