Don't speak.
Don't speak until
You've caught
Your breath.
Don't sleep.
Don't sleep unless
You're safe
In bed.
Just pray in the night they take someone instead.
The hills are alive with the sounds in your head.
Please, dear,
Please, dear, be sure
Of us
And ours.
Don't fear.
Don't fear the worst,
In case
It comes.
Just pray in the night that they don't take your love.
The hills are alive with the sounds of their guns.
You're getting use to 'em.
What happens next?
What happens next?
East to west:
Lunatics.
And it started slow;
Ends in a rush.
Starts with them,
And ends with us.
Just pray in the night that these walls are enough.
The hills are alive and the rivers show blood.
The cancer is wide and it's taken my trust.
Do what we will, and we will what we must.
