At five in the morning, an hour before dawn
They Wake her up in her bed
Standing over her body and holding a gun to her head.
She says, 'Why have you come? Oh and what have I done?'
They'll tell her it's come to defeat
Then they'll kick through her paintings and drag her out in the street
Chorus:
Oh my love don't take any more
Oh my love break down the door
By day they take her and interogate her
and tell her she's crude and insane
But by night the same keepers they steal in a rape her again
She can't see who they are through the thick black bars
That cast shadows over her eyes
And if she resists, they beat her with fists, 'til she cries
Chorus:
Oh my love don't take any more
Oh my love break down the door
Oh my love there's a sun in the East
And it's your release
So you the dictator who's choosen to hate her
I'm telling you listen to me
There are others you'll fight for the right to be tender and free
If she dies at your hand just you understand
I've a knife and it's sharp and it's clean
And I'll paint in your blood 'til it turns to a flood 'Let her be'
Chorus:
Oh my love don't take any more
Oh my love break down the door
Oh my love there's a sun in the East
And it's your release
