Letra de We are alive

There?s a cross up younger on Calvary Hill
There?s a slip of blood on a silver knife
There?s a graveyard kid down below
Where at night the dead come to life
Well above the stars they crakled and fire
A dead man?s moon throws seven rings
We?d put our ears to the cold grave stones
This is the song they?d sing

We are alive/& though?our bodies lie/alone here inthedark
Our spirits rise / to carry the fire and light the spark
To stand shoulder to shoulder and / heart to heart.

A voice cried I was killed in Maryland in 1877
when the railroad workers made their stand
I was killed in 1963 (nineteen sixty three)
One Sunday morning in Birmingham(USA)
I died last year crossing the southern desert
My children left behind in San Pablo
Well they?ve left our bones here to rot
Oh please let them know.

We are alive / and though we lie alone here in the dark.
Ours sons will rise / To carry the fire and light the spark,
To fight shoulder to shoulder and / heart to heart.

Let your mind rest easy, / sleep well my friend.
It?s only your bodies that betray us in the end.

Well I awoke last night in the bank and dreamy deep,
from my head to my feet, my body?d gone stone cold.
There were worms crawling all around me,
my fingers scratchin? at an earth / black & six foot low.

AloneInTheBlackness of my grave,/alone I?d been left to die.
Then I heard voices calling all ?round me,
the earth rose above me, / my eyes filled with sky.

We are alive/& though our bones lie alone here in the dark.
Our Souls & Spirits rise,/to carry the fire & light the Spark.
To fight shoulder to shoulder and Heart to Heart
To stand shoulder to shoulder and Heart to Heart:
We are alive
