Uniforms - Shearwater

Send back the uniforms

Send back the generous Reich

Send us back to our lives

On the waving blue wild

And remove every mark

Down to the waterline

And with your arms at your sides

Turn homeward

Over seas, over roads

Over burning atolls

Hurl your empire’s crown

Back in the heart

Of the waves

Relay, relay the unquenchable song through the wire

Where your horses alight

On the shores of our lives

The world blooms for the last time
