lyrics

KOLYA, KOLYA,
KOLYA, KOLYA!
You are not at school again,
But is this Your fault?

KOLYA, KOLYA,
KOLYA, KOLYA!
We go to harvest Your Fruit,
And then we parade for You!

KOLYA, KOLYA,
KOLYA, KOLYA!
Against our will,
You were born to be the leader of other Heroes.

KOLYA, KOLYA,
KOLYA, KOLYA!
Your Name is written on the wall,
It evokes fear from within us.

Smelling like burning tyres,
Tasting like last year's sleety winter.
You are only more sacred than a machine droning,
Amongst the blind but not us.

The poisonous smoke will cover us
At the crossroads of destitute meetings,
But there is a leak in His debauched mind,
You grow in Him, You are His son.

KOLYA, KOLYA, KOLYA!
