lyrics

REMEMBER
(Skaith)

In the house of the almighty Lord,
They all shall come, the great, the small
The have-nots and the have-it-all shall enter
There’s a body from a foreign war
Draped in flag, the bugle calls
To pray in sorrow, but bless the cause
Remember.

Shall we not remember?

But would the man from Verdun speak of ‘glory’
If he laid the wreath?
And if the empire called again, would he defend her?
And what of those who held Madrid
While Washington and London hid?
Or those that kept the Athens bridge
Traitored by an allied kiss?

Shall we not remember?

And who believes He came to die
For uniforms where padres hide
To bless the violence on our side
Knowing smaller nations cry?
‘Thou shalt not kill’
Unless of course the meek shall try
And share the earth
With those who found their power at birth.
Remember.

Shall we not remember?

In 2011 five of the original musicians got together again. 7 new albums released after this reunion. . ... more
