Alarm (The)
Sixty Eight Guns
And now they are trying to take my life awayForever young I cannot stay, on every corner I canSee them there. They don't know my name theyDon't know my kind. They're after you with theirPromises. they're after you to sign your life away.For living in the backstreets that's our home fromHome. the painted walls are all we've ever knownAnd "The Guns Forever" that's our battle cry. it isThe flag that we fly so high and every day they tryTo drag us down but I cry with anfer I have doneNo crime. For up no the terrace I can hear theCrowd roar and down in the subway I can hearThem whisper and through all the ragin glory ofThe years we never once thought of the fears firWhat we'd do when the battle cry was over.Nothing lasts forever is all they seem to tell youWhen you're young but have no illusion and noDisillusion the Sixty Eight guns will never dieTHE SIXTY EIGHT GUNS IS OUR BATTLE CRY
