Gallows

There’s no song in my heart left to sing

We hear the drums of war

There’s no light in the candle that drinks

Another child is torn

There’s no solace for a mother who sees

The empty bed at night

There’s no breath left for us to breathe

We are born to die

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Dee-Dee-dah-dum

Come to the river where the young men die

Come to pay your respects

Come beneath the moon and the tide

Come when the price gets too high

There’s no peace in my soul at night

We are now at war

There’s no grace in money that bleeds

The price of sin and scorn

There’s no truth in crowns or thrones

Evil men make their debts

There’s no stopping the coming wave

We will never forget

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Dee-Dee-dah-dum

Come to the river where the young men die

Come to pay your respects

Come beneath the moon and the tide

Come when the price gets too high

We march on under clouded skies

We march to the tune of shadow

We stand with those who gave their lives

We stand here in the gallows

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Ba-da-da-dee-da-dum

Dee-Dee-dah-dum

Come to the river where the young men die

Come to pay your respects

Come beneath the moon and the tide

Come when the price gets too high
