The Knife
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For those that trespass against us.
Knife
Tell me my life is about to begin.
Tell me that i am a hero.
Promise me all of your violent dreams
Light up your body with anger.
Now, in this ugly world,
It is time to destroy all this evil.
Now, when i give the word,
Are you ready to fight for your freedom?
Now
Stand up and fight, for you know we are right.
We must strike at the lies, that have spread like
Diseuse through our minds
Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest,
And we'll spread our kindness to all who our love now deserve
Some of you are going to die,
Martyrs of course to the freedom that i shall provide
I'll give you the names of those you must kill,
All must die with their children.
Carry their heads to the place of old.
Hang them on stakes let the blood flow.
Now, in this hate-filled world, we must break all the chains
That have bound us
Now, the crusade has begun, we shall make this a land
Fit for heroes
Now
Stand up and fight for you know we are right... etc
We are only waiting freedom?
We have won
Some of you are going to die,
Martyrs of course to the freedom that i shall provide
