As enemies prepare to take over our nations
Their only ambitions to see Europe fall
They’ll be no surrender to the Reds or the money-lenders
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
They can stop all their bluffing, they’re entitled to nothing
And they don’t belong here with their alien ideas
For we’ll not be beaten, the true European
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
We’ll stand and we’ll fight, ’til the last man and woman
And we won’t give an inch of our national pride
And we’ll fight and we’ll beat them, ’til we finally defeat them
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
We’ll fight in the cities, we’ll fight in the forests
We’ll fight in the mountains, for Europe we die
For we’ll not be mastered by no Marxist bastard
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
Come on all you lads hear the patriots’ call
You’ve robbed the whole world’s people, taken them for fools
Took their land, you’ve ruined lives and imposed your alien rules
Sat back and you rubbed your hands, and you took them for a ride
But when the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
When the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
You’re stirring up a deadly war, the rich against the poor
It’s you who makes decisions, it’s you who opens sores
Brother fighting brother, and maybe you don’t care who dies
But when the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
When the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
You’ll have nowhere, nowhere, nowhere left to hide
Better leave here quickly, ‘for the people start to rise
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere left to hide
You can stop the low waves ebbing, but not the raging tide
It’s you the arch-seducer, controls the people’s fate
Whenever there is civil war, it’s you who sets the pace
The people are united, well if that destroys your lies
But when the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
When the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
But when the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
When the lies begin to crumble, you’ll have nowhere left to hide
From a window, directing dreams
You just ignored your people’s screams
You were a king, and she was your queen
One more dictator in the corrupt East
Then came the rise of the common man
His one strength was the love of his land
Stood against bullets, as the clubs rained down
Swore to bring the revolution around
You were living on borrowed time
It’s time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come
You never thought they would win the day
Against the dreaded Securitarte
Hidden tunnels and deadly lead
To you it didn’t matter if the people got fed
Marxist ideals leave a bitter taste
But you didn’t close every door in your haste
Freedom’s foot was jammed in the door
And now you’re losing a bitter war
You were living on borrowed time
It’s time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come
You were living on borrowed time
It’s time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come
Your bloodstained flags are tattered and torn
As a another power-base is newly born
Your evil empire came a’tumbling down
The seas closed in and your power drowned
Well Elena and Nicolae
How does it feel now it’s time to die?
You never thought you’d hear the reaper’s call
Shot to bits against a bloodstained wall
You were living on borrowed time
It’s time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come
You were living on borrowed time
It’s time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come
For red scum!
I see a phoenix arising
Like a phoenix from the ashes raised
Sweeping evil before him
Marching on towards better days
Marching to the cities, marching
Marching to the towns, marching
With your banners before you, marching
Spread what you say, and spread it all around now
Rising, phoenix rising
There’s job to be done now
Don’t back down from the coming fight
We’re gonna lighten our load now
And drag us back from the endless night
Marching to the cities, marching
Marching to the towns, marching
With your banners before you, marching
Spread what you say, and spread it all around now
Rising, phoenix rising
Marching to the cities, marching
Marching to the towns, marching
With your banners before you, marching
Spread what you say, and spread it all around now
Rising, phoenix rising
Now many flags are unfurling
And standing up to the tyranny
Men and women with a common bond
Tell each other “You can lean on me now”
Marching to the cities, marching
Marching to the towns, marching
With your banners before you, marching
Spread what you say, and spread it all around now
Rising, phoenix rising
Marching to the cities, marching
Marching to the towns, marching
With your banners before you, marching
Spread what you say, and spread it all around now
Rising, phoenix rising
So often everyday, if there’s a problem turn away
Apathetic, don’t care, that’s an attitude everywhere
Gotta wake up, get involved, when there’s a problem get it solved
Come on people, right the wrongs, believe me now we ain’t got long
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
And then there’s enemies all around, trying to kill us, drag us down
Massed Reaction, Red Front, One-Worlders, join the hunt
We’re the few now, we’re the brave, it’s a struggle every day
Let ‘em know, beat the drum, never beat us, we won’t run
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
Could our government tell me, what their policies are supposed to be?
Do you realise what you’ve done? Now our country’s, over-run
Politcian, explain, what was happening in your brain
Foreign intruders, that’s true, but I bet none of them live near you
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
Stand up, and be counted
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
Stand up, and be counted
Stand up
Yeah, stand up
As I board the ship of destiny, I look back to see
The setting sun going down by your shoulder, gloom descends on me
You’re my calm in the raging waters, of the stormy seas
You’re the one thing that keeps me sane, on the ship of destiny
Agony reigns in my heart
Tears of pain as we part
My mind’s ablaze with tortured doubts, and sleep it will not come
The lashing rains of uncertainty, make me think of things I’ve done in the past now
Like to run from all this pain, I’m trapped upon the decks
The storm’s approaching, the skies are dark, and dreams could be shipwrecked
Agony reigns in my heart
Tears of pain as we part
Agony reigns in my heart
Tears of pain as we part
The north wind blows confusion’s gales, and lightning strikes again
Thunder rolls and the endless days are driving me insane
To fight the madness I think of you, no longer will I roam
Back to you, the haven of your love, I’m finally coming home
Agony reigns in my heart
Tears of pain as we part
Agony reigns in my heart
Tears of pain as we part
You took our people, and baby you took our land
You ignored the pain, and you stole from our hands
You took away our pride, and you came into our homes
And now we’re strangers in our own land, and on strange paths we roam
Silent night before the dawn
Don’t you think that it’s the calm before the storm?
Once we were proud men, and now we’re down on our knees
We have let them take over, and now they do as they please
What’s it gonna take, to light that spark of pride
And if our courage does not waken, we’ll be taken for a ride
Silent night before the dawn
Don’t you think that it’s the calm before the storm?
Silent night before the dawn
Don’t you think that it’s the calm before the storm?
Tell me you people, are you willing to act?
For the men that could save us, they will need to be backed
No one should sit back, and leave it to the rest
And every person’s courage, will be put now to the test
Silent night before the dawn
Don’t you think that it’s the calm before the storm?
Silent night before the dawn
Don’t you think that it’s the calm before the storm?
You stand in the middle of the road, you follow no creed or code
You don’t know just where your going
Your mind is in turmoil, your blood begins to boil
You don’t like the way that the river’s flowing
Sooner or later
You’re gonna change your mind
Sooner or later
I know you’ll find the truth now
The leaders that do not care, how you or your family fare
Wealth’s the only thing that they all look to
Your heritage will be sold, for favours and alien gold
If you knew the things that they are up to, and they’re up to
Sooner or later
You’re gonna change your mind
Sooner or later
I know you’ll find the truth now
Sooner or later
You’re gonna change your mind
Sooner or later
I know you’ll find the truth now
Lot of the things that the people lack, have been stolen from behind their backs
But the liars tell us that it’s alright
The sooner that we all know, where the nation’s resources go
Hope it’s not too late before we all stand and fight
Sooner or later
You’re gonna change your mind
Sooner or later
I know you’ll find the truth now
Throughout time, there’s been crimes, throughout our history
But not as great, as the one of late, affecting you and me
Once a nation proud and free, and now we’re weeping sorrow’s tears
Tragedy’s approaching, it’s worse than all your fears
Come on my countrymen
Come on and take a stand
Don’t let ‘em take away your land
Once our nation’s future, was decided by the sane
And now a poison’s leaking in, and coursing through our nation’s veins
Now this poisoner worships gold, and don’t care for you and me
It’s using veils and cunning words to make us blind so we can’t see
Come on my countrymen
Come on and take a stand
Don’t let ‘em take away your land
Come on my countrymen
Come on and take a stand
Don’t let ‘em take away your land
Looking back to times gone by, when man fought for his land
Now with his pride they put him down, and try to tie his hands
Our ancestors, they lost their lives, to make our futures’ good
Now it’s our turn to stand and spurn the poison running through our blood
Come on my countrymen
Come on and take a stand
Don’t let ‘em take away your land
I see a white door and they want it painted black
No colours anymore, they want to turn them black
I see the girls walk by, dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head, until the darkness goes
No more will our green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My nation lasts with me, until the morning comes
I look inside myself and my heart’s turning black
Act before the tragedy, we want our nation back
Up ’til then some fade away, too scared to face the facts
It’s not easy facing up, when your whole world seems black
Don’t wanna see your face, painted black, black as night
Don’t wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
Don’t wanna see you painted, painted, painted, painted black, black as night
Feeling low, which way to go now
It’s a freak-show, down in the city
Broken dreams, and desperate screams
The switchblade gleams, down in the city
Empty cans, forgotten plans
Begging hands, down in the city
Litter strewn, a broken tune
End comes soon, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Nothing’s new, the mood is blue now
What’s the truth, down in the city
The streets of gold are really yellow mould
The heart is cold, down in the city
Watch your back, never slack
The soul is black, down in the city
Look around, at every sound
Compassion has drowned, down in the city.
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Rough and stormy seas, the nation’s on its knees
Either vein please, down in the city
Try to escape, to get into shape
Leave the riot and rape, down in the city
Death’s on the prowl, walker once heard a growl
With a scythe and dark cowl, down in the city
Gathering gloom, spelling out doom
The reaper comes soon, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
Down, yeah down
Down, down in the city
