Here Comes The War 4 27 Lyrics

Sullivan/Heaton/Nelson)

Today, as you listen to this song, another 394,000 children

were born into this world....they break like waves of

hunger and desire upon these eroded shores....carrying

the curses of history and a history yet unwritten....the oil

burns in thick black columns, the buzz saws echo through

the forest floor....they shout give us our fair share,

give us justice....

....here comes the war

On a grey morning to the south of here two young men in

makeshift uniforms peer into the misty light....and

figures dart behind the trees as a snap of rifle rounds

echoes out across the fields....well they hardly know their

sacred mother tongue....but they know their duty to defend

the flag hanging limp and bloody above the village church....

while a thousand miles away in a warehouse complex down by

the river....young money men play paintball games....New Model Army - Here Comes The War 4 27 - http://motolyrics.com/new-model-army/here-comes-the-war-4-27-lyrics.html

....here comes the war

Put out the lights on the age of reason....

Blow out the candle and tell us another of those great stories....

the ones about serial killers....let dreams flow into savage

times....do you hear the sirens scream across the city,

we've had three hot nights in succession....the riot season is

here again....dear lord lead us back into the valley of the

shadow of death....

....here comes the war

Did you think we were born in peaceful times?...

Faster, faster....like a whirling dervish spinning round....

faster, faster....till the centre cannot hold....faster, faster....

You screamed give us liberty or give us death

Now you've got both, what do you want next?....

....here comes the war

Put out the lights on the age of reason
