death before revenge - pangur bán lyrics
[verse 1]
call me what you will and tell me what they say
for tomorrow brings a new wind and the rain has gone away
for within these walls, i see the sun as it shines o’er the hill
down into the valleys and amongst the daffodils
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
[verse 2]
now here we starve in prison to support our fellow men
who’ve only a woollen blanket and a crucifix in their hands
yet our harass and give them h*ll but their spirits they cannot break
hold your chins up lads, keep marching on, we don’t think she’ll leave it too late
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
[verse 3]
bobby was the first to go, with francis close behind
the people streamed onto the streets; to have faith was not a crime
and faith is what those men had when they chose to join our fight
their actions were political, can’t those british see we’re right?
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
[verse 4]
the days rolled by and two more died; o’hara and mccreesh
yet thatcher chose to bit her lip, the toil was not to cease
still the barricades went up by day and the bullets hummed by night
how much longer will they keep this path, there’s still no end in sight
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
[verse 5]
’tis a dreadful thing that those men joined our ranks of martyred braves;
that’s ten too many coffin nails fixed only to their graves
but if they only realised then thatcher’ll mark us well
they are more determined reasons for to break out of this h*ll
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
[chorus]
but when this war is over and i see your face again
then i’ll tell you of the warriors who put death before revenge
