lyrics

Said the burn to the wall
You’re new to this place
I have pearls to share
Of how this world rests and wakes
In the borderlands
It’s barren and it’s bleak
You can’t confine the water
Within this creek

Said the wall to the burn
Six years until I’ve gripped
I’m ten feet wide to the Tyne
And a turf wall to Solway’s coastal drift
In the borderlands
It’s barren and it’s brisk
Roman power, gains by the hour
Brick upon brick

We breath in
We breath in

Said the burn to the wall
There’s use within your tumbled brick
You’re slumped in the ground
Here’s a chance to repurpose relics
In the borderlands
You’re making your home
Nature’s gift will give you
A licence to roam

We breath in, the breath of our common land
We breath in, the breath of our common land

Said the wall to the burn
I’m ready to make my peace
Fallen by design
Insects outlived Roman chiefs
In the borderlands
My soul is in decline
It’s time to be scattered, where it matters
Transposed in locals lives

We breath in, the breath of our common land
We breath in, the breath of our common land
We breath in, the breath of our common land
We breath in, the breath of our common land
