Tyrant from a Foreign Land Lyrics


I write for you tonight

my boat has sailed at last

heading nowhere

they say i'm going to make peace prevaiI

Seven days

I expect to stay

When you leave the port there is no turning back

chorus:

Try just to take and give no more

live by your law and walk alone

and when the sun comes down

you'll feel the pain inside your lonely heart

A wise man

once said

fight and die for your beliefs

but the old man

who points at me

just wants power now I see it clear

chorus

Blood death

fire everywhere

children women screaming

am I making peace today

tears fall

do I have a god

this is not my land

this is not my war
