Crushed (Hostile Nations)
Ah, the morning rose
The Sun exposed
The hell that was the day
As our ship struck ground
With a mighty sound
We were crushed like lifeless souls
And our hearts, they sank
With each wave they crashed
Another life to mourn
For the new black flag
Is the same old flag
We've all seen raised before
In the middle of hope and glory
To the fields of love and hate
There's a boy with his toy soldiers
Playing war in a boyish way
Hear the message pay the piper
To a land where all is safe
Cross the bridge without a border
Lost forever, Somehow we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
John he wrote in the beginning
But the word was not the word
I can claim to be the father
Just the son of a human birth
Kill the septic, build a lifeline
Kiss the face of the lost and lonely
Locking arms around the factory
Breaking bones is all we are now
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
Livin' in a world
Livin' in a world full of hostile
Livin in a world
Livin in a world full of hostile
Livin in a world
Livin in a world full of hostile nations
Oh my God, what have we done here
Oh my God are you still real
Oh my God your cross looks broken
Like the face in your imagery
Hear the message, pay the piper
To the land where all is safe
Where the Devils and the angels
Sing together on and we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations, we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
Living in a world
Living in a world full of hostile nations
The Sun exposed
The hell that was the day
As our ship struck ground
With a mighty sound
We were crushed like lifeless souls
And our hearts, they sank
With each wave they crashed
Another life to mourn
For the new black flag
Is the same old flag
We've all seen raised before
In the middle of hope and glory
To the fields of love and hate
There's a boy with his toy soldiers
Playing war in a boyish way
Hear the message pay the piper
To a land where all is safe
Cross the bridge without a border
Lost forever, Somehow we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
John he wrote in the beginning
But the word was not the word
I can claim to be the father
Just the son of a human birth
Kill the septic, build a lifeline
Kiss the face of the lost and lonely
Locking arms around the factory
Breaking bones is all we are now
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
Livin' in a world
Livin' in a world full of hostile
Livin in a world
Livin in a world full of hostile
Livin in a world
Livin in a world full of hostile nations
Oh my God, what have we done here
Oh my God are you still real
Oh my God your cross looks broken
Like the face in your imagery
Hear the message, pay the piper
To the land where all is safe
Where the Devils and the angels
Sing together on and we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations, we were
Crushed, crushed
Seven long days is a lifetime
We were (hushed, hushed)
Under the black flag, same as the old flag
Livin' in a world full of hostile nations
Living in a world
Living in a world full of hostile nations
