about
On February 24th, 2022, a Russian warship radioed a group of 13 Ukrainian soldiers stationed on a small island in the Black Sea. The message was simple: “I am a Russian warship, lay down your weapons or prepare to be fired upon”.
The Ukrainian soldiers turned up the volume, and broadcasted their reply: “Russian warship, go fuck yourself”.
All track proceeds will go to the Sunflower of Peace, a non-profit organization providing medical and humanitarian aid to those affected by the violence in the wake of the Russian invasion.
Glory to Ukraine.
lyrics
Sunlight on the breakers
The morning air is cold
Soon it will be springtime
But I won’t get that old
There’s a warship on the water
And its got me in its sights
I don’t that think I’ll live to see tonight
I joined when I was 18
I don’t regret a thing
They taught how to shoot a gun
How to march and sing
All these things I carry
I will soon be buried in
The radio signal is thin
If this is it
Today’s as good as any day to fall
If this is it for me
Like a sunflower I’ll be standing tall
The city streets are empty
We once walked to work
Now we’re crowded in the subway
Hoping no one’s hurt
Throwing Molotovs from windows
While the saints go marching in
Their voices are carried on the wind
Singing "If this is it
Today’s as good as any day to fall
If this is it for me
Like a sunflower I’ll be standing tall"
There’s a woman in a dark coat
Stopping soldiers in the road
Putting seeds inside their pockets
When they die, our garden grows
Their blood will water roses
Their bones will turn to clay
And feed the pine trees someday
Oh this is it
Today’s as good as any day to fall
Oh this is it for me
Like sunflowers we are standing tall
Like sunflowers we are standing tall.
