The Charge (Live) - New Model Army[00:00:00]

Our history speaks in thunder[00:00:30]

From a thousand village halls[00:00:32]

In blood and sweat and sacrifice [00:00:34]

In honouring every call[00:00:36]

So the forces gathered against[00:00:38]

The thorn a-piercing in their side[00:00:40]

A brave new world is beckoning[00:00:42]

So the olden world must die [00:00:43]

In the offices of the city [00:01:00]

At all the tables of oak and power[00:01:02]

The snares are laid and baited[00:01:04]

For the approaching of the hour[00:01:05]

A hundred justifications[00:01:07]

And the presses are ready to roll[00:01:09]

The gateways to the nation[00:01:11]

They are firmly under control[00:01:13]

On on on cried the leaders at the back[00:01:15]

We went galloping down the blackened hills[00:01:18]

And into the gaping trap[00:01:20]

The bridges are burnt behind us[00:01:22]

And there's waiting guns ahead[00:01:23]

Into the valley of death[00:01:26]

Rode the brave hundreds[00:01:28]

We called for some assistance[00:01:44]

From the friends that we had known[00:01:46]

But this is the 1980s[00:01:48]

And we were on our own[00:01:50]

We never felt like heroes[00:01:51]

Or martyrs to a cause[00:01:53]

Just battle-weary soldiers[00:01:55]

In a bloody civil war[00:01:57]

On on on cried[00:01:59]

The leaders at the back[00:02:01]

We went galloping[00:02:02]

Down the blackened hills[00:02:03]

And into the gaping trap[00:02:04]

The bridges are burnt behind us[00:02:06]

And there's waiting guns ahead[00:02:08]

Into the valley of death[00:02:10]

Rode the brave hundreds[00:02:12]

The massacre now is over[00:02:33]

And the order new enshrined[00:02:34]

While a quarter of the nation[00:02:36]

Are abandoned far behind[00:02:37]

Their leaders offer the cliché words [00:02:39]

So righteous in defeat[00:02:41]

But no one needs morality[00:02:43]

When there isn't enough to eat[00:02:44]

The unity bond is broken and[00:02:46]

The loyalty songs are fake[00:02:48]

I'll screw my only brother for even a[00:02:50]

Glimpse at a piece of the cake[00:02:52]

We only cry in private here[00:02:53]

Behind the shuttered glass[00:02:55]

When we think of the[00:02:57]

Charge of this brigade [00:02:58]

The severing of the past[00:02:59]

On on on cried[00:03:01]

The leaders at the back[00:03:02]

We went galloping[00:03:04]

Down the blackened hills[00:03:05]

And into the gaping trap[00:03:06]

The bridges are burnt behind us[00:03:08]

And there's waiting guns ahead[00:03:10]

Into the valley of death[00:03:12]

On on on cried[00:03:15]

The leaders at the back[00:03:17]

We went galloping[00:03:19]

Down the blackened hills[00:03:20]

And into the gaping trap[00:03:21]

The bridges are burnt behind us[00:03:22]

And there's waiting guns ahead[00:03:24]

Into the valley of death[00:03:26]

Rode the brave hundreds[00:03:29]

On on on cried[00:03:31]

The leaders at the back[00:03:31]

We went galloping[00:03:33]

Down the blackened hills[00:03:34]

And into the gaping trap[00:03:35]

The bridges are burnt behind us[00:03:37]

And there's waiting guns ahead[00:03:39]

Into the valley of death[00:03:41]
