Lest we forget

In rememberance of all those who gave their lives so that New Zealand could be the place it is today.

I'm just listening to Keb Mo, his words seem somewhat appropriate:

Victims of Comfort

No rocket's gonna fly that high,
There's no escaping the enemy, It's you & I,
We've poisoned up the water,
We're chokin' on the air,
Let's stop before it gets too late,
Or is it already too late?
Is it already too late?

For the victims of comfort,
Got no one else to blame,
We're just the victims of comfort,
Connosieurs of pain.

It's a technological merry-go-round,
Dangerous illusions buried under the ground,
And everyone likes a party,
But know one wants to clean,
Well I'd like to see a change somehow
But I'm a little busy right now,
Just a little busy right now.

I'm just a victim of comfort,
I got no one else to blame,
I'm just a victim of comfort,
A Cryin' shame.

Oh and what do we got to lose?
Everything.
Yes and what do we stand to gain?
Everything, so lets try together,
Before we have to cry together,
It's too soon to die together.

I'm just a victim of comfort,
Got no one else to blame,
I'm just a victim of comfort,
Connosieur of pain.
We were victims of comfort
Got no one else to blame,
I'm just a victim of comfort,
Cryin' shame.

True enough. Sadly.
