(Bm D A Dm)x2
Bm D
The sun sets, the light fades
A Em
The blood red on an empty street
Bm D
It's not night, it's not day
A Em
It's no more, for an unfortunate soul who
Bm D A
Witnessed his life violently erased,
Em
From the horror of the human race
Bm D A Em
Bright futures exchanged for profit, living half alive
(Bm D A Dm)
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life
we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, go!
(Bm D A Dm)x2
Bm D A
In life now pay respects to your blood
Em
Those in the vast of the great
Bm D A
Unknown, unite there, your heart's one
Em
in moments you'll never forget, yeah
Bm D A
History lessons direct from the grave
Em
Lost souls of the lost divide
Bm D A Em
Liberate your generation, living, rotting flesh
(Bm D A Dm)
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life
we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors
Bm D
Call out tyranny!
A Em
B spark of dissent can light a fury of flame
Bm D
Call out to be free!
Bm D
Sound off! Be the voice of a generation
A Em
Dissent! You've got a choice to make
Bm D
Sound off! Be the voice of a generation
A Em
Dissent! You've got a choice to make
Bm D
Strip away! Be the voice of a generation
A Em
Strip away! You've got a choice to make
Bm
Cut away! Cut away!
D
Strip away! Strip away!
A Em
Cut away! Strip away your chains!
(Bm D A Dm)
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life
we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors
(Bm D A Dm)
Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life
we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, oh!
