Lyrics

Maybe you'll see me on the evening news
 Maybe you'll see me with a bag over my head
 If that's the case, then I've met my doom
 If that's the case, then my comrades are dead
 And I don't hate my enemy
 I hate the cloud he's brought over my land
 There's no virtue in killing a man
 Neither is there virtue in being afraid to stand
 But I saw the black coats forming lines
 They hit our beaches running
 We're on our knees, but not to pray
 You're the only reason I stayed
 In this coward's melee
 I'd rather die than live without mercy and love
 Sing while the city decays
 We'd rather go up in flames
 Lest we betray thy names of dignity and love
 ♪
 You can't change the course, our fate's sealed long ago
 But hope is not lost
 Code name Corbeau
 We trade their secrets at cost for our lives
 The panzer is strong, the raven is wise
 I tune my ears to the BBC
 I can hear them, they can't hear me
 I long to forget all the horrors I've seen
 I live like a ghost
 I'll die with the free
 Traitors and turncoats turned aside
 Traitors loose lips sink ships
 They're on their knees, but just to beg
 You're the only reason I stayed
 In this coward's melee
 I'd rather die than live without mercy and love
 Sing while the city decays
 We'd rather go up in flames
 Lest we betray thy names of dignity and love
 ♪
 Inside the fuselage
 Valiant young soldiers singing songs
 "Fear not my downcast brothers
 We are the strong arm of the law
 By land and air and sea
 On wings of destiny we ride"
 Sing while the city decays
 
 Sing while we go up in flames
 You're the only reason I stayed
 In this coward's melee
 I'd rather die than live without mercy and love
 Sing while the city decays
 We'd rather go up in flames
 Lest we betray thy names of dignity and love
 I'm on your side until my body drains of blood
 Lest we betray thy names of dignity and love
 I'm on your side until my body drains of blood
