Lyrics to Gods And Generals [Full Album] by Civil War

Tracklist: 01 War Of The World Illogical insanity society will rust Break down of the human race Common sense is lost Heaven now has turned to hell There is not a god The pain is on the street tonight It's time to join the ultimate fight Be prepared for the final call Stay calm be superior This place is a story to be told So come on to the other side You're in for a twisted ride Your words are mine as we're fighting the war of the world The war of the world Condition now it's critical So give it mouth to mouth Don't wait for the atomic blast Just pay just what it costs The war is on the streets tonight Beware of the nuclear delight Be prepared for the final call Stay calm be superior This place is a story to be told So come on to the other side You're in for a twisted ride Your words are mine as we're fighting the war The war of the world When I'm gone and sent to my grave A part of me will stay alive But what's left to save This is the battle of the world It's time to get it right we'll set it to burn Be prepared for the final call Stay calm be superior This place is a story to be told So come on to the other side You're in for a twisted ride Your words are mine it's a war of the world Be prepared for the final call Stay calm be superior This place is a story to be told So come on to the other side You're in for a twisted ride Your words are mine as we're fighting the war The war of the world 02 Bay Of Pigs They're out for blood tonight they're the widowmakers Killer elite Cuba invaders A motley crew in the line of fire A raging horde of criminal pilgrims Murder patrol of heavy drug addicts Burning wheel on the road to ruin This is the dark chapter of freedom But no one cares where is the reader now The words are gone somehow but I just can't take it so Break the chains one final time We'll see you on the other side The revolutions bound to fail And God is on your side They aimed to take the residence But left by their own president Failure is what people say About the Bay of Pigs The Bay of Pigs [X2] So have you seen the news have you felt desire The lust to kill to turn on the pyre Tell me son: Do you even bother Sometimes it drives me mad that I don't know The secret script to the questions of our lives Please don't say that I am a liar You know Back in the days they remembered the world war It was for real and just like a time bomb Why can't we find another way these boys were on top so Break the chains one final time We'll see you on the other side The revolutions bound to fail And God is on your side They aimed to take the residence But left by their own president Failure is what people say About the Bay of Pigs What a slaughter This is the dark side of the story Hookers of greed power horny Ooohh Let's find another war You better break the chains one final time We'll see you on the other side The revolutions bound to fail And God is on your side They aimed to take the residence But left by their own president Failure is what people say About the Bay of Pigs The Bay of Pigs Pigs [X2] The Bay of Pigs Pigs [X2] The Bay of Pigs 03 Braveheart We are talking 'bout the past And a freedom fighter that will last He's known as the

legends of heroes not many are true But here is one Let me tell you some more 'bout Normandy And a name that will shine eternally A lad who was sent to a place you know well To play for his comrades on the road to Hell Walked into the fire without fear in his heart only armed with his bagpipe he was destined to march And the madness could start Play for me brother like never before Scottish Piper Bill Play "Hielan laddie" and "The Road to the Isles" on your pipe of peace It was pride it was real and no tale from the past They were there to be legends to set marks that would last Soldiers may stand and soldiers may fall And this is about one who did stand tall A Scotsman was fighting in world war number one In the same kilt as our piper like father like son Play for me brother like never before Scottish Piper Bill Play "Hielan laddie" and "The Road to the Isles" on your pipe of peace on your pipe of peace Bring 'em down to their knees Play for me brother like never before Scottish Piper Bill And play "Hielan laddie" and "The Road to the Isles" on your pipe of peace Play for me brother like never before Scottish Piper Bill Play "Hielan laddie" and "The Road to the Isles" on your pipe of peace on your pipe of peace Scottish Piper Bill playing for peace 05 USS Monitor I know that the sun goes down As sure as the world still spins around This is the new and modern way Speak of the devil here I am Came from the Viking land Caught in the cold couldn't understand Stuck in the woods of wilderness Blessed with the fury Off we go to conquer other shores I do really want it all Please open the door Hold your fire save your life Armored in the steel the USS Monitor This is judgment day The rise of the ironclad In England but things turned bad Inventions of mine just could not stand The west was at war and needed help Inferno on the river Armed with iron like a wall So treat me better than before And the hammer will fall Hold your fire save your life Armored in the steel the USS Monitor This is judgment day The rise of the ironclad Hold your fire save your life Armed in the steel the USS Monitor This is judgment day The rise of the ironclad It's judgment day Ironclad [X8] Hold your fire save your life Armored in the steel the USS Monitor This is judgment day The rise of the ironclad [X2] 06 Tears From The North Now as the longboat disappears behind the morning

Fought on the barricades Tales from the battle days It's kill or be killed Pagan minds to find the tears from the north on the rivers in the east Rurik came to unleash the beast People tried to fight against the Swedish might But they did not stand a chance Out on the last crusade in quest after better days to conquer it all Viking funeral live forevermore Fought on the barricades Tales from the battle days It's kill or be killed Pagan minds the heathens from the north Out on the last crusade in quest after better days to conquer it all Lay down your shield and sword To dry the tears from the north Mother Russia today would not be the same If the Vikings had not been Rimes from the past destined to last For long Mr. Eriksson came to America my friend many years before the rest Men from the north had an urge to explore it all So I sing you my song Out on the last crusade in quest after better days to conquer it all Viking funeral live forevermore Fought on the barricades Tales from the

they understand That they never would return again 07 Admiral Over The Oceans He rule the oceans It's ship against ship and man against man The Trafalgar showdown is here A crucial ordeal steel against steel hold on get ready to fire Victory turned towards the enemy fleet An alliance between France and Spain This war on the waves would decide Europe's fate We don't run we're here to attack Blood smoke and water body parts everywhere Cannonballs flying bullets in the air Nelson was standing in the middle of it all No one thought he would fall He's the admiral over the oceans The admiral over the sea He's the admiral over the oceans If you don't understand Read the history book again I do believe they have done it at last But the battle has been won I have a short time to live this time I give in As my duty has been done Wars can't be won by the hand of just one man That may be true but listen clear my friend He sailed the seas with a cause to serve his land Under Gods command He's the admiral over the oceans The admiral over the sea He's the admiral over the oceans If you don't understand Read the history book He's the admiral over the oceans The emperor over the waves He's the admiral over the oceans If you don't understand Read the history book again Blood smoke and water body parts everywhere Cannonballs flying bullets in the air Nelson was standing in the middle of it all No one thought he would fall He's the admiral over the oceans The admiral over the sea He's the admiral over the oceans If you don't understand Read the history book He's the admiral over the oceans The emperor over the waves He's the admiral over the oceans If you don't understand Take a look at Trafalgar Square 08 Back To Iwo Jima A second of light it came like a flash from heaven The moment of truth a minute of doubt but then my friend It came from the sky they came from the sea We all knew that we would die The secret of war is that the strongest will stand Don't ever believe there is some glory And I can recall when enemies came to invade So many years ago Going back to the island again I'll return to the fire and hell I wake up every night and I scream after light As I feel Iwo Jima again Back to Iwo Jima again All of us knew It's over and out but samurais keep fighting We stand for the flag and aim for the win though we have lost Recalling the days the warriors way I can see it though I'm blind So what do you say if they call you a liar and a thief And how do you plead are you the guilty The worst of it all was that I could not go home To the place where I belong Going back to the island again I'll return to the fire and hell I wake up every night and I scream after light As I feel Iwo Jima again Back to Iwo Jima my friend Going back to the island again I'll return to the fire and hell I wake up every night and I scream after light In the Land of the Rising Sun I will return to the island again I'll return to the fire and hell I wake up every night and I scream after light I'll go back to the island again I'll go back to the island again Back to Iwo Jima again 09 Schindler's Ark Is it the end my friend is this the time to wave I've been away from home for so long I look at the fading night I fear the morning light Visions of glory days are gone Now tell me where you are Then tell me please is it far To Schindler's Ark I don't know they're sent there to fade away I don't know which day I will die Tell me why the strong doesn't have to pay Here I am no more will I cry [X2] Is this the Nazi way Is this the way they pay Memories came back to me Should I stay or should I go Don't talk to a loaded gun Father what have I done Mr. Schindler an angel sent from God You saved so many lives Thanks to you I did survive To Schindler's Ark I don't know they're sent there to fade away I don't know which day I will die Tell me why the strong doesn't have to pay Here I am no more will I cry [X2] Schindler's Ark is here Now tell me where you are Then tell me please is it far to Schindler's Ark I don't know they're sent there to fade away I don't know which day I will die Tell me why the strong doesn't have to pay I'm so tired of running To Schindler's Ark I don't know they're sent there to fade away I don't know which day I will die Tell me why the strong doesn't have to pay Here I am no more will I cry [X2] Please Schindler take me home on Schindler's Ark 10 Gods And Generals on the first page he wrote So here we go marching out to the battlefield All prepared to fight Be by my side I pray to my god And on page forty one No sign

always under attack Starving and dying all was black They went to war ready to devour If I live I'll tell you how they faced the gates of hell Stand up sons hold your ground until the end Give us rain bring us fire We are here forevermore Desperate hearts Knights of Dalecarlia Through the snow ice and hailstorms Defenders of the right to be Burning souls destined to be free Knights of Dalecarlia one man stood up 'gainst the tyrants and tried To gather an army to fight them down No one dared but the soldiers from the valley The Danes had to flee from the rage of the north Abandoned the land with the freedom call It's history now and we must all remember People starved and they died so thank God for those who tried Flesh and blood sweat and tears for you we cry Give us rain bring us fire We are here forevermore Desperate hearts Knights of Dalecarlia Through the snow ice and hailstorms Defenders of the right to be Burning souls destined to be free Knights of Dalecarlia Dalecarlia Give us rain bring us fire We are here forevermore Desperate hearts Knights of Dalecarlia Through the snow ice and hailstorms Defenders of the right to be Burning souls Knights of Dalecarlia Dalecarlia In my heart forever [X2] 12 Colours on my Shield Warriors Fight Forever [X2] We are the sons of the power brigade Walking the endless mile Riding the storm and we'll never back down Legends never die So
