Текст песни Above Us The Waves - Cliffhanger

Оригинальный текст песни Cliffhanger

Could we avoid this fate?
What can we salvage?
A blade in our hands, an inherent trait

Retreat! Retreat!
The drums of war sound in disbelief
No glory in a holy battle

Are we chasing our infinity
For a waving flag upon a hill
We sacrifice our future’s bones
Now that we can hardly breathe
the troubled air of history
We’re building new trenches as we pray for (peace)

Washed our hands, write off our sins
Buried the hatchets
Mind this - all wars just end in ashes
Our shameful courage
Where is your sense of pride now?
Heroic past demoralized
They’ll ship you back in ashes
And long forgotten

Why claim a place in absurdity?
Remain a shadow of history now

Dead for years
And the mourning screams ringing in our ears
The innocent are fit for martyrs

The innocent are fit for martyrs!

A darkness always lingering
What good could ever come of this
When pride is weaved with guilt

Goddamn you all
You condemned us all
