"Guns For Hire" lyrics

"Guns For Hire"

We're the children of night, the ones on the street
And we'll still be here 'til they're dead on their feet
We're the ones who've been waiting with hunger in our heart
The hour is at hand, their time ends and ours starts

So give up the fight when there's no more light
We'll stand with our backs to the wall
All the unbelievers, they can't drag us down
We rise and we never shall fall

In the night we're the ones, the guns for hire
We'll take your life and in the night
We're the ones who bring the fire
We'll burn them to the ground

We're born of vengeance in the heart of the war
Marauders of Earth, we're Hell's vagabonds
False gods on the altar say "bow down to me"
But follow in line and you'll never be free

So give up the fight when there's no more light
We'll stand with our backs to the wall
All the unbelievers, they can't drag us down
We rise and we never shall fall

In the night we're the ones, the guns for hire
We'll take your life and in the night
We're the ones who bring the fire
We'll burn them to the ground
Burn them to the ground
Watch them burn

In the night we're the ones, the guns for hire
We'll take your life and in the night
We're the ones who bring the fire
We'll burn them to the ground
In the night we're the ones, the guns for hire
We'll take your life and in the night
We're the ones who bring the fire
We'll burn them to the ground
