Cry of the Martyrs

With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary And I see the light and I see the sea Despite the future crashing down and closing over me I can't tower over all my enemies Listen to the martyrs cry for me And I see the light and I see the sea The sun is going down but everyone leaves me burnin' I see the winning on the other side of history Listen to the martyrs cry for me With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary Hey, ha let's go wreak some violence Reduce our memories to silence We're passing all the stories of the unsung and unseen Listen to the martyrs cry for me 'Cause I seen the light and I seen the sea I'm waiting for the [?], I'm waiting for perdition I can't carry myself, I will die in peace Listen to the martyrs cry With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary
