The Gathering |
| In your head you can hear your heart |
| Sweat runs cold it’s all about to start |
| Life or death only seconds away |
| For king and country, there’s a game to play. |
| The hawks will fly, the doves will cry |
| The old wise ones stay at home |
| The young ones die |
| Come to the gathering |
| Have fun with a gun |
| Come to the gathering |
| Your day in the sun. |
| In your soul you can feel the fear |
| In your mind all your demons appear |
| Could this be your glory day |
| Or just another number when you’re blown away? |
| The hawks will fly, the doves will cry |
| The old wise ones stay at home |
| The young ones die |
| Come to the gathering |
| Have fun with a gun |
| Come to the gathering |
| Your day in the sun. |
| Thank the ones who bear the scar |
| Widow weaves and a silver star |
| All the ones who won’t meet dad |
| Wonder why they turned out so bad |
| All the kids who won the day |
| Just got bombed by the folks they saved |
| And all the people where you’re from |
| Don’t want you there you’ve been gone too long. |
| In your head you can hear your heart |
| Sweat runs cold it’s all about to start |
| Life or death only seconds away |
| For king and country, there’s a game to play. |
| The hawks will fly, the doves will cry |
| The old wise ones stay at home |
| The young ones die |
| Welcome to the gathering |
| Have fun with a gun |
| Welcome to the gathering |
| Your day in the sun. |
