The Knife Lyrics

Tell me my life is about to begin

Tell me that I'm a hero

Promise me all of your violent dreams

Light up your body with anger



Now, in this ugly world

It is time to destroy all this evil

Now, when I give a word

Are you ready to fight for your freedom ?



NOW



Stand up and fight, for you know we are right

We must strike at the lies, that have spread like disease through our minds

Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest

And we'll spread out our kindness to all who our love now deserve



Some of you are going to die

Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide



I'll give you the names of those you must kill

All must die with their children

Carry their heads to the palace of old

Hang them, hang them, let the blood flow



Now, in this ugly world

Breaking the chains around us

Now, the crusade has begun

Give us a land fit for heroes



NOW



Stand up and fight, for you know we are right

We must strike at the lies, that have spread like disease through our minds

Soon we'll have power, every soldier will rest

And we'll spread out our kindness to all who our love now deserve



We are only wanting freedom ?
