When you lay down your life
In the far fields of sorrow
And you pray through the night
And you see no tomorrow any more
When the pain never hurts
God and faith, king and country
When you crawl through the dirt
When you climb from the trenches
Then you die every minute of the day
In a world of your own
In a place you remember
Where the work has all gone
In a land fit for heroes
There’s a new order coming in its place
Guns away, run away
Come away, get away from here today
Run away, come away
Get away from here today
In the depths of the town
In the heart of the city
With the lights going down
When they strike without pity
We must hide all our privilege away
Come away, run away
Hide away, get away from here today
Run away, hide away
Get away from here today
Never go, never know
Never so afraid as now
Never go, never know
Never so afraid as now
When they crawl through the streets
Like a new model army
Out of sight, out of reach
When they kill without mercy
Then we hide in our doorway till it ends
And the pain in your body never mends
And we’re still burning bridges in the end
