WE ARE NOT AFRAID
WRITTEN BY JIM MOGINIE & PETER GARRETT
CELLO: JULIAN THOMPSON

There’s a dark cloud on the horizon
And it’s coming closer every day
No one, no one understands why it’s happening

We are not afraid

Sometimes, huh, nightmares get inside our heads
Too much grasping madness reaching everywhere
Waking up a world of fear
Yet darkness lifts
The way ahead is clear

We are not afraid

The rights of those that follow and the living things that feed us are greater than the prejudice of those that lead us, we must be fearless, we must be fearless
The rights of those that follow and the living things that feed us are greater than the principles of those that lead us, we must be fearless, we must be fearless

We are not afraid
We are not afraid
