Algiers - Cry Of The Martyrs lyrics

[Verse 1] With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary [Verse 2] They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary [Chorus 1] And I see the light and I see the sea Despite the future crashing down and closing over me I can't tower over all my enemies Listen to the martyrs cry for me [Chorus 2] And I see the light and I see the sea The sun is going down but everyone leaves me burnin' I see the winning on the other side of history Listen to the martyrs cry for me [Verse 1] With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary [Verse 2] They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary [Chorus 3] Hey, ha let's go wreak some violence Reduce our memories to silence We're pa**ing all the stories of the unsung and unseen Listen to the martyrs cry for me [Chorus 4] 'Cause I seen the light and I seen the sea I'm waiting for the [?], I'm waiting for perdition I can't carry myself, I will die in peace Listen to the martyrs cry [Verse 1] With the world to win behind us Out here shunned for all to see Dirty the tub with our bodies to remind us Of our defeat at Calvary [Verse 2] They'll say our whole life is a locust Disturbing their fascist peace But it is they who mangle our horizons Of our defeat at Calvary
