Hey, hey!
They live this day and night
This is sacrifice, no fucking compromise!
Hey, hey!
They have the heart to resist
Whilst the hunters hunt, they will persist
This is where tragedy is bought and sold
It seems their pain is worth it's weight in gold
You know they're here when the water is red
Our fading life support is hanging by a thread
A message etched on broken ships
Hey, hey!
They live this day and night
This is sacrifice, no fucking compromise!
Hey, hey!
They have the heart to resist
Whilst the hunters hunt, they will persist
You can hear them cry, they're calling out
To the mother lost, she's bleeding out!
She's bleeding out!
Their innocence is heaven sent
This malevolence, it will not relent
A graveyard sits upon the shore
They won't swim together anymore
The tide will rush with waves of fear
Selling souls,
The devil is near!
The tide will rush with waves of fear
Selling souls,
The devil is near!
The devil is near!
A message etched on broken ships
We'll be here till corruption quits
There is a voice, though they cannot speak
Not yet ready to admit defeat.
You can hear them cry, they're calling out
To the mother lost, she's bleeding out!
You can hear them cry, they're calling out
To the mother lost, she's bleeding out!
This is where tragedy is bought and sold
It seems their pain is worth it's weight in gold!
