Hallowed Ground (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Well the docks lie crippled
In the northem towns
The boys have all gone away
Trying to find work down south

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i’ve seen the future
And i’ve seen the past
And i’ve seen the lights go down
On this world fading fast

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

And mister i walk in the valley of the shadow
Won’t someone have mercy on my soul
On my soul, soul, soul

Hallowed ground how sad is the sound
In a valley that once sang out sang proud
Hallowed ground where the ships run aground
To die in the harbour in a rust ridden town, town, town, town

Now i’ve got a wife and a young child
Back home in my house
Oh i’ve got someone
I’ve got to take care of somehow

Hallowed Ground (Letra)

I’m living on hallowed ground

Right before my eyes the darkened skies hide muffeled cries
Right before my eyes the hidden lies disguised as new york died
Right before my eyes propaganda flies

You can run but you can’t hide

Right before my eyes politicians lied to save their hide
Right before my eyes ny cried way, everybody died
Refuse to deny, here come the lies

I’m living on hallowed ground

Right before my eyes, ignore the cries
Millions wonder why right before my eyes
Justify the cries of those crucified
Instead you lie, you ignore their cries

Fullfill the prophecy and kill the enemy
Agree or disagree, where lies our destiny?
Enemy, an effigy
History for all to see
Infany, irony
Misery loves loyalty

Never forgive, never forget

Hallowed Ground (Letra)

Everybody’s intent on killing someone
The streets are closed and there’s a kid on the run
The bullets scream out from gun to gun
Everybody’s intent on being someone

The cold and darkness of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets gotta keep ourselves warm
A child in the arms of a teenage mum
Who will be there, who will be the next victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what’s around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

Down on the corner sits a broken man
Lives by the bottle, swears "never again"
Lost his money on the dogs and gin
Now he looks for his supper in a garbage can

The kids hang around by the old schoolground
Right by the river where the body was found
Throwing stones on hallowed ground
Who will be there, who will be the next victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what’s around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

In the cold and darkness of a criminal dawn
Wrapped in blankets gotta keep ourselves warm
A child in the arms of a teenage mum
Who will be there, who will be the last victim
Of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town
Sharing conversation, hoping things will soon get better
While the children meet, got the world at their feet
Not knowing what’s around the corner
Are we living for an uncertain future?

"the profit is a fool, the spirtual man is mad,
For the multitude of thine inequity, and the great hatred." (hosea 9:7)

Everyone’s trying to decide,
Where to go when there’s no place to hide.
I follow the bombs as they’re coming down.
This must have been hallowed ground.

No matter what they decide to have done.
Burn up the clouds, block out the sun.
My hope is in one they can’t bring down.
My soul is in hallowed ground.

I see the fear, it’s on the rise.
Let’s catch the enemy by surprise.
Burry your treasure where it can’t be found.
Burry it deep in hallowed ground.
