| For Those that Trespass against us | |
| Tell me my life is about to begin | |
| Tell me that I am a hero, | |
| Promise me all of your violent dreams | |
| Light up your body with anger. | |
| Now, in this ugly world | |
| it is time to destroy all this evil. | |
| Now, when I give the word | |
| get ready to fight for your freedom | |
| 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 power, every soldier will rest | |
| And we'll spread out our kindness | |
| To all who our love now deserve. | |
| Some of you are going to die - | |
| Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide. | |
| I'll give you the names of those you must kill, | |
| All must die with their children. | |
| Carry their heads to the palace of old, | |
| Hang them high, let the blood flow. | |
| Now, in this ugly world | |
| break all the chains around us, | |
| Now, the crusade has begun | |
| give us a land fit for heroes, | |
| 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 power, every soldier will rest | |
| And we'll spread out our kindness | |
| To all who our love now deserve. | |
| Some of you are going to die - | |
| Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide. | |
| We are only wanting freedom | |
| We are only wanting freedom | |
| We are only wanting freedom | |
| We are only wanting freedom ("Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom...") | |
| We are only wanting freedom ("Things are getting out of control here today") | |
| We are only wanting freedom ("OK men - fire over their heads!") | |
| We are only wanting freedom | |
| === WE HAVE WON === | |
| Some of you are going to die, | |
| Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide. |
