we have all heard what we wanted to hear
truth that sounds right to our ears

but what wisdom is there within us
to live based on the feeling of our hearts?
how many times has instinct let us down
never to be thought through
never to be questioned
say what you really mean
when your ambition calls you
for what use is there in praying
if you will only hear what you want to hear?

we speak of fighting to resist this world
but what about the battle within us?
if we have chosen to live against the grain
then why are we all facing the same way?
there is no difference between us and them
if we all blindly seek truth from sentiments

Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with
The slaughter of innocence
And I will pray for her
I will call her name out loud
I would bleed for her
If I could only see her now

Living on a razors edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razors edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razors edge
Balancing on a ledge
You know, You know

The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....

Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me
And I will pray for you
Some day I may return
Don't you cry for me
Beyond is where I learn

Living on a razors edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razors edge
You know, You know

The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....

Living on a razors edge
Balancing on a ledge
Living on a razors edge
You know, You know

The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....
The evil that men do lives on and on.....

The evil, The evil, The evil that men do....
The evil, The evil, The evil that men do....

Longboats have been sighted,
the evidence of war has begun,
Many Nordic fighting men,
their swords and shields all gleam in the sun.
Call to arms defend yourselves,
get ready to stand and fight for your lives,
Judgement day has come around,
so be prepared don't run stand your ground.

They're coming in from the sea,
They've come the enemy.
Beneath the blazing sun,
The battle has to be won.
Invaders......Pillaging.
Invaders......Loot ing.

Set ablaze the camp fires,
alert the other men from inland.
Warning must be given,
there's not enough men for a stand.
The Vikings are too many,
too powerful to take on our own.
We must have reinforcements,
we cannot fight this battle alone.

They're coming over the hill,
They've come to attack.
They're coming in for the kill,
There's no turning back.
Invaders......Fighting.
Invaders......Mara uding.

Axes grind and maces clash,
as wounded fighters fall to the ground.
Severed limbs and fatal woundings,
bloody corpses lay all around.
The smell of death and burning flesh,
the battle weary fight to the end.
The Saxons have been overpowered,
victims of the mighty Norsemen.

You'd better scatter and run.
The battle's lost and not won.
You'd better get away,
To fight another day.
Invaders......Raping.
Invaders......Plunder ing.
