Raise that Lantern
- Jo Camilleri, Nick Smith
I can't
hold out here much longer
this storm will never break,
those lights won't ever shine
I've been nailed up, shown
no mercy
there's a curse upon this
land honey, I'm dyin' on the vine
raise that lantern, keep it
bright
hold it close so I can see
sleep in tears by yourself
tonight
roll that load over me
I've been sold out, held to
ransom
thrown into the wind, so I
know which way it blows
I've been locked out, shown
no pity
in a faithless town you're
gonna reap what you sow
over you, over me, roll that
load over me
