Arise! by Amebix
Arise! lyrics
Well we�ve all heard the sermon seen
The preachers or worshipped the stage
Heard the new manifesto? It�s all questions no solutions at all
Well, you�re out on your own now, always have been
Just look at your friends
Break the surface to daylight
Strength will flow through our unity.
There is a traitor in our midst
And when we rise we will be betrayed
They are the wolves in sheep�s clothing
Take the place at the back of the fold
All this talk about freedom
Will be tainted with blood (it�s your life)
Put this cross on your back child
Tread the long weary trail to the top of the hill
ARISE! GET OFF YOUR KNEES!
There�s some hard times coming down
There�s the smell of revolution on the wind
Well, we�re grinding down our axes
Telling tales round the bonfire at night
We will set out with a fire in our hearts
When this darkness gives way to the dawn
In the light we�re united as one
For the kingdom of heaven must be taken by storm!
ARISE! GET OFF YOUR KNEES!
STAND UP!
