THE BEACH

MERHABA MY FRIENDS

SONG 2 (COHEN TYPE SONG)

WE LINGER IN THE SHADOWS
WERE THE WATCHER CANNOT SEE US
DISASTER IN THE CITIES
AS THE SOLDIERS OVERWHELM US
OUR FIGHT IS ALL BUT OVER
BUT THE STRUGGLE WILL STILL CARRY ON

AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SALVATION
AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SOULS
WE BOW TO THE ALMIGHTY
WE DID AS WE WERE TOLD

WE`VE NOTHING LEFT BETWEEN US
WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO GIVE
NO BULLETS FOR OUR RIFLES
NO APPETITE TO LIVE
WE SURRENDER TO OUR CAPTORS
THEY GATHER US LIKE SHEEP

AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SALVATION
AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SOULS
WE BOW TO THE ALMIGHTY
WE DID AS WE WERE TOLD

NOW HERE WE ARE IN PRISON
STRIPPED OF ALL WE OWNED
WE THINK OF RETRIBUTION
AS THEY TAKE US ONE BY ONE
INTO THE DARKENED ROOM
WHERE MANY DID NOT RETURN

AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SALVATION
AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SOULS
WE BOW TO THE ALMIGHTY
WE DID AS WE WERE TOLD

THERE WERE LOTS OF QUESTIONS ASKED
OF WHICH I HAD NO ANSWER FOR
I WAS BURIED IN SELF PITY
I STIRRED DOWN AT THE FLOOR
AND MY THOUGHTS TO EASE THIS PAIN
MY MEMORIES OF FLOWERS IN THE RAIN

AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SALVATION
AND WE PRAYED FOR OUR SOULS
WE BOW TO THE ALMIGHTY
WE DID AS WE WERE TOLD
