Lyrics

The convoy lights are dead ahead
 The merchantmen lay in their bed
 The thump of diesels hammers down
 In the oily sea-the killing ground
 His knuckles white his eyes alight
 He slams the hatch on the deadly night
 A cunning fox in the chickens lair
 A hound of hell and the devil don't care
 Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer
 Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
 A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below
 Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep
 Chill the hearts of fighting men
 In open ocean wondering when
 The lethal silver fish will fly
 This boat will shiver, men will die
 A cast of millions, a part to play
 Killer, victim, or fool for a day?
 Obeying an order, men have to die
 Us or them, a well rehearsed lie
 Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer
 Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
 A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below
 Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep
 
 ♪
 The lifeboats shattered the hull is torn
 The tar black smell of burning oil
 On the way down to Davy Jones
 Every man for himself, you're on your own
 The wolf eyes watch the crosswire
 'Stern tubes ready', 'aim and fire'
 They can pin some medal on your chest
 And in two more weeks dead like the rest
 Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer
 Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
 A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below
 Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep
 ♪
 Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer
 Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
