《The Charge》歌词

[00:00:04] The Charge - New Model Army

[00:00:10] Our history speaks in thunder

[00:00:12] From a thousand village halls

[00:00:14] In blood and sweat and sacrifice

[00:00:16] In honouring every call

[00:00:17] So the forces gathered against

[00:00:19] The thorn a-piercing in their side

[00:00:21] A brave new world is beckoning

[00:00:22] So the olden world must die

[00:00:38] In the offices of the city

[00:00:39] At all the tables of oak and power

[00:00:42] The snares are laid and baited

[00:00:43] For the approaching of the hour

[00:00:45] A hundred justifications

[00:00:46] And the presses are ready to roll

[00:00:48] The gateways to the nation

[00:00:50] They are firmly under control

[00:00:52] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:00:55] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:00:57] And into the gaping trap

[00:00:59] The bridges are burnt behind us

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

[00:01:02] Into the valley of death rode the brave hundreds

[00:01:19] Oh well we called for some assistance

[00:01:21] From the friends that we had known

[00:01:23] But this is the 1980s and we were on our own

[00:01:26] We never felt like heroes or martyrs to a cause

[00:01:30] Just battle-weary soldiers in a bloody civil war

[00:01:33] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:01:37] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:01:39] And into the gaping trap

[00:01:40] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:01:42] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:01:44] Into the valley of death rode the brave hundreds

[00:02:05] The massacre now is over

[00:02:06] And the order new enshrined

[00:02:08] While a quarter of the nation

[00:02:10] Are abandoned far behind

[00:02:12] Their leaders offer the clich words

[00:02:13] So righteous in defeat

[00:02:15] But no one needs morality

[00:02:17] When there isn't enough to eat

[00:02:18] The unity bond is broken

[00:02:20] And the loyalty songs are fake

[00:02:22] I'll screw my only brother

[00:02:23] For even a glimpse at a piece of the cake

[00:02:25] We only cry in private here

[00:02:27] Behind the shuttered glass

[00:02:29] When we think of the charge of this brigade

[00:02:31] The severing of the past

[00:02:33] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:02:35] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:02:37] And into the gaping trap

[00:02:39] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:02:41] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:02:43] Into the valley of death rode the brave hundreds

[00:02:47] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:02:49] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:02:51] And into the gaping trap

[00:02:53] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:02:55] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:02:56] Into the valley of death rode the brave hundreds

[00:03:01] On on on cried the leaders at the back

[00:03:03] We went galloping down the blackened hills

[00:03:05] And into the gaping trap

[00:03:07] The bridges are burnt behind us

[00:03:08] And there's waiting guns ahead

[00:03:10] Into the valley of death rode the brave hundreds
