In the Name
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.
Got the call that the movement may fall
And the breath was needed post haste
Above all with backs to the wall
They sped away with no time to waste
In the blink of an eye in a lightning flash
The storm grips the throat of the liar
A final goodbye carried way in the ash
As the silhouettes dance by the fire
Up to the front of the line
Steady now straighten your spine
Never think all will be lost can you hear me
In the name of the father name of the son
In the name of why we fight
In the name of the father name of the son
Reborn in the eye of the storm
When the wind whips the pride with its hate
We mourn with incredible scorn
And their howl will carry the weight
In the blink of an eye in a lightning flash
The storm grips the throat of the liar
A final goodbye carried way in the ash
As the silhouettes dance by the fire
Up to the front of the line
Steady now straighten your spine
Never think all will be lost
Up to the front of the line
Steady now straighten your spine
Never think all will be lost can you hear me
In the name of the father name of the son
In the name of why we fight
In the name of the father name of the son
In the name of the nation
In the name of that we are one
In the name of the father and his dyin´ son
In the name of what we live for
And in the name of why we fight
I´m honoured to have known your name
On this our blessed our blessed night
This our blessed night this our blessed
In the name of the nation
In the name of that we are one
In the name of the father and his dyin´ son
In the name of what we live for
In the name of why we fight
I´m honoured to have known your name
On this our blessed night
In the name of the nation
In the name of that we are one
In the name of the father and his dyin´ son
In the name of what we live for
In the name of why we fight
I´m honoured to have known your name
On this our blessed night
In the name of the nation in the name
In the name of the nation in the name
