Kosovo: Dialogue

The Serbs and the Albanians all at the table
We’ve seen this before as if it’s a fable

The armies are silent, now just the pen
Is the weapon that can bring this conflict’s end
The EU and others sit around flustered
“It’s so easy” they say “just get up the muster
to buck your public’s discord, dismay
                                                         so we can get in front of the cameras and display
                                                         a final agreement to ease all your problems
                                                        peace and stability, we totally solved ‘em”

                                                       While back in Belgrade, Mitro, and Prishtinë
                                                        The average citizen is hardly serine
                                                        Angered by feeling left out and avoided
                                                        It’s one more deal that’s gonna be voided
                                                        Thaçi and Dačić will speak over reason
                                                        In the Balkans, after all, peace takes more than a season

                                                        We wanted democracy as a simple result
                                                        Of the NATO effort just after the fault
                                                        Lines began to so brutally fracture
                                                        Curing Balkanization is what the EU is after
                                                        So while their goal is noble and impassioned
                                                        This story needs a hero and it’s not Lady Ashton
