lyrics

She said, "Would you sin for the many?"
I said, "Maybe. But these stripes on my back - Every day you know they save me."
In the city we strip down the iron,
Put the weight on our mortal coil
She said, "Live long enough and then you'll really see your blood begin to boil."

If you're living in fear on the shores
Join us inland and reap your reward, yea
My lord is a generous man
We're beggars, pagans in his outstretched hands.

What we need is an oracle here,
Shining light on our ignorant mind.
Paths open up, and we march on.
Hoping to reach sky and the divine
Dont you believe in all that shines?
Clouds open up and we march on.

I'm not falling for the words of a heretic
Have your people leave our chosen home.
If it's war you seek, heathen, you'll be driven to the very fringes of the earth.

The price you pay your king is a sin, you see
My lord is paid in flesh and blood
'Cause once you set foot in our city, yea
Your gold will be as worthless dust.

If you're living in fear on the shores
Join us inland and reap your reward, yea
My lord is a generous man
We're beggars, pagans in his outstretched hands.

If you know a thief, then let him be.
His place will be nailed to a tree.
My lord is an exacting man,
We're all cattle in his lands.
