Men of Harlech - The First Fifteen Choir

Born from some mother's womb Just like any other room Made a promise for a new life Made a victim out of your life When your time's on the door And it drips to the floor And you feel you can touch All the noise is too much And the seeds that are sown Are no longer your own Just a minor operation To force a final ultimatum Thousand words are spoken loud Reach the dumb to fool the crowd When you walk down the street And the sound's not so sweet And you wish you could hide Maybe go for a ride To some peep show arcade Where the future's not made A nightmare situation Infiltrate imagination Smacks of past Holy wars By the wall with broken laws The leaders of men Born out of your frustration The leaders of men Just a strange infatuation The leaders of men Made a promise for a new life No saviour for our sakes To twist the internees of hate Self-induced manipulation To crush all thoughts of mass salvation

We always fall into the holes we dig So ignorant to the depth of them A place where we can finally get some rest Until the rain starts pouring in I hear your voice, it's calling out, and fading away If it's your choice You pull me out and push me away Push me away Push me away Push me away I dreamt of climbing out to see your face To scale the walls that I've put up in me 'Cause there's no solace in the pit that I've made Once the rain starts pouring in! I hear your voice, it's calling out, and fading away If it's your choice You pull me out and push me away I hear your voice, it's calling out, and fading away If it's your choice You pull me out and push me away Here comes the water (Bringing me to the surface) Here comes the answer (To the question I never asked) Here comes the water (Showing me my true purpose) Here comes the answer (That will bring me back!) I hear your voice, it's calling out, and fading away If it's your choice You pull me out and push me away I hear your voice, it's calling out, and fading away If it's your choice You pull me out and push me away Push me away Push me away Push me away Push me away Push me away Push me away.

If I could face them If I could make amends with all my shadows I'd bow my head and welcome them But I feel it burning Like when the winter wind stops my breathing Are you really gonna love me when I'm gone? I fear you won't I fear you don't And it echoes when I breathe 'Til all you'll see is my ghost Empty vessel, crooked teeth Wish you could see And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me under And I wither underneath in this storm I am a stranger I am an alien inside a structure Are you really gonna love me when I'm gone? With all my thoughts And all my faults I feel it biting I feel it break my skin, so uninviting Are you really gonna need me when I'm gone? I fear you won't I fear you don't And it echoes when I breathe 'Til all you'll see is my ghost Empty vessel, crooked teeth Wish you could see And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me under And I wither underneath in this storm I feel it And they call me under And I'm shaking like a leaf And they call me underneath to this storm

I looked over Jordan, And WHAT did I see, Comin' for to carry me home, A band of angels comin' after me, Comin' for to carry me home. Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home; Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home. If you get there before I do, Comin' for to carry me home, Tell all my friends I'm comin' too, Comin' for to carry me home. Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home; Swing low, sweet chariot, Comin' for to carry me home.

Now And in the past they must remain But we can still rise now And be the nation again That stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again O flower of Scotland When will we see Your like again That fought and died for Your wee bit hill and glen And stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again The hills are bare now And autumn leaves lie thick and still O'er land that is lost now Which those so dearly held O flower of Scotland When will we see Your like again That fought and died for Your wee bit hill and glen And stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again

I vow to thee, my country All earthly things above Entire and whole and perfect The service of my love The love that asks no questions The love that stands the test That lays upon the alter The dearest and the best The love that never falters The love that pays the price The love that makes undaunted The final sacrifice A love that asks no questions A love that stands the test That lays upon the alter The dearest and the best I vow to thee, my country All earthly things above Entire and whole and perfect The service of my love And there's another country I've heard of long ago Most dear to them that love her Most great to them that know We may not count her armies We may not see her King Her fortress is a faithful heart Her pride is suffering And soul by soul and silently Her shining bounds increase And her ways are ways of gentleness And all her paths are peace We may not count her armies We may not see her King Her fortress is a faithful heart Her pride is suffering And soul by soul and silently Her shining bounds increase And her ways are ways of gentleness And all her paths are peace
