《The Charge(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Charge (Live) - New Model Army

[00:00:30] Our history speaks in thunder

[00:00:32] From a thousand village halls

[00:00:34] In blood and sweat and sacrifice

[00:00:36] In honouring every call

[00:00:38] So the forces gathered against

[00:00:40] The thorn a-piercing in their side

[00:00:42] A brave new world is beckoning

[00:00:43] So the olden world must die

[00:01:00] In the offices of the city

[00:01:02] At all the tables of oak and power

[00:01:04] The snares are laid and baited

[00:01:05] For the approaching of the hour

[00:01:07] A hundred justifications

[00:01:09] And the presses are ready to roll

[00:01:11] The gateways to the nation

[00:01:13] They are firmly under control

[00:01:15] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:01:18] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:01:20] And into the gaping trap

[00:01:22] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:01:23] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:01:26] Into the valley of death

[00:01:28] Rode the brave hundreds

[00:01:44] We called for some assistance

[00:01:46] From the friends that we had known

[00:01:48] But this is the 1980s

[00:01:50] And we were on our own

[00:01:51] We never felt like heroes

[00:01:53] Or martyrs to a cause

[00:01:55] Just battle-weary soldiers

[00:01:57] In a bloody civil war

[00:01:59] On on on cried

[00:02:01] The leaders at the back

[00:02:02] We went galloping

[00:02:03] Down the blackened hills

[00:02:04] And into the gaping trap

[00:02:06] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:02:08] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:02:10] Into the valley of death

[00:02:12] Rode the brave hundreds

[00:02:33] The massacre now is over

[00:02:34] And the order new enshrined

[00:02:36] While a quarter of the nation

[00:02:37] Are abandoned far behind

[00:02:39] Their leaders offer the cliché words

[00:02:41] So righteous in defeat

[00:02:43] But no one needs morality

[00:02:44] When there isn't enough to eat

[00:02:46] The unity bond is broken and

[00:02:48] The loyalty songs are fake

[00:02:50] I'll screw my only brother for even a

[00:02:52] Glimpse at a piece of the cake

[00:02:53] We only cry in private here

[00:02:55] Behind the shuttered glass

[00:02:57] When we think of the

[00:02:58] Charge of this brigade

[00:02:59] The severing of the past

[00:03:01] On on on cried

[00:03:02] The leaders at the back

[00:03:04] We went galloping

[00:03:05] Down the blackened hills

[00:03:06] And into the gaping trap

[00:03:08] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:03:10] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:03:12] Into the valley of death

[00:03:15] On on on cried

[00:03:17] The leaders at the back

[00:03:19] We went galloping

[00:03:20] Down the blackened hills

[00:03:21] And into the gaping trap

[00:03:22] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:03:24] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:03:26] Into the valley of death

[00:03:29] Rode the brave hundreds

[00:03:31] On on on cried

[00:03:31] The leaders at the back

[00:03:33] We went galloping

[00:03:34] Down the blackened hills

[00:03:35] And into the gaping trap

[00:03:37] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:03:39] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:03:41] Into the valley of death
