Code Name: Raven

Maybe you'll see me on the evening news Maybe you'll see me with a bag over my head If that's the case then I've met my doom If that's the case then my comrades are dead And I don't hate my enemy I hate the cloud he's brought over my land There's no virtue in killing a man Neither is there virtue in being afraid to stand But I saw the black coats forming lines They hit our beaches running We're on our knees but not to pray You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee I'd rather die than live without mercy and love Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames Lest we betray the names of dignity and love You can't change the course of fates sealed long ago But hope is not lost, code name Corbeau We trade their secrets at cost for our lives The panzer is strong, the raven is wise I turn my ears to the BBC I can hear them, they can't hear me I long to forget all the horrors I've seen I'll live like a ghost, I'll die with the free Traitors and turncoats turned aside Traitors' loose lips sink They're on their knees but just to beg You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee I'd rather die than live without mercy and love Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames Lest we betray the names of dignity and love Inside the fuselage, valiant young soldiers singing songs Fear not my downcast brothers we are the strong arm of the law By land and air and sea on wings of destiny we ride Sing while the city decays, sing while we go up in flames You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee I'd rather die than live without mercy and love Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames Lest we betray the names of dignity and love I'm on your side until my body drains of blood Lest we betray the names of dignity and love I'm on your side until my body drains of blood
