Verse 1
We're living underneath
the land of sorrow
I can hear the bombs rain down
And how do I explain
there's no tomorrow
I can hardly make a sound
Chorus 1
Dead silence
I think we can't
escape Til death
Do us part
In the end
Verse 2
They're marching
up the main street
As my heart beats
Louder then machine gun fire
The sound of all the
sirens sing like violins
Rattling the coil of wire
I heard the soldiers say
"don't let them get away"
But I could not escape
their bullets and grenades
A casualty of war
A victim of mistake
Another widow has been made
Chorus 2
Dead silence
Will come to
rescue me
When violence
Has took this
world away
Dead silence
I think we
can't escape
Til death
Do us part
In the end
Chorus 3
Dead silence
Will come to
rescue me
When violence
Has took this
world away
Dead silence
No time to be afraid
My love I will
see You again
Interlude
Hey Hey Hey Hey
--/-----/-- x2
Guitar solo
Bridge
Fly away like the wind
Some things God can't forgive
Why is war just a fight
While the innocent die
They can tear us apart
I'll still live in your heart
If your spirit gives up
Don't surrender your love
And the world will survive
If we stand side by side
One day hope will arrive
Now I must say goodbye
(Repeat Chorus 2)
(Repeat Chorus 3)

When violence
Dead silence
Dead silence
When violence
Dead silence
