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