Genesis The Knife (live Version) Lyrics

The Knife (live Version) Lyrics

Tell me my life is about to begin,
    Tell me that I`m a hero,
Promise me all of you violent dreams,
    I guarantee all you will need them
Now, in this ugly world,
    get ready to fight for your freedom
Now, when I give the word,
    get ready to destroy all this evil
Now -
Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
    We will strike at the lies
    That have spread like disease through our minds.
Soon we`ll have won and we`ll treasure this worth
    With our winnings and kindness
    To all who our love now deserve
Some of you are going to die -
    Martyrs, of course, to the freedom I will provide.
I`ll give you the names of those you must kill
    Then have all burned and quickly
Cover them up in Trafalgar Square
    Hurry to see, you`ll see them dead
In this ugly world,
    ready to fight for your freedom
Now, when I give a word
    hang `em on high, let the blood flow
Now -
Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
    We must strike at the lies
    That have spread like disease through our minds
Soon we`ll have won and we`ll treasure this worth
    With our winnings and kindness
    To all who our love now deserve
Some of you are going to die -
Martyrs of course, to the freedom I will provide
We are only wanting freedom...
--- WE HAVE WON ---
Some of you are going to die, 
Martyrs, of course, to the freedom I will provide
