(no More) Paddy's Lament Lyrics - Float - Flogging Molly

Wipe the blood from your lip 

With the flesh of your hand 

Theres no thorn in the side left to grow 

So lets cherish the names that we lost for an age 

With the rue now the supper must go 

Where traditions they blend lives a home on the mend 

The grass glistens now for alls eyes 

So lets sever the shame we have come to reclaim 

With the waters retreat feel the shore for us 

Woth the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more 

Where the ghost still haunt for the day we come to the fore 

[Chorus] 

Don't look back 

For whats dead now is safe 

The exiled, a home where the soul kept safe 

Take me back on the crest of a wave 

No more tears for you paddy's lament 

No more tears 

No more paddy's 

Lament 

Rip the greet from his heart 

Theres no sorrow tonight 

For once banished dreams sleep divine 

Where the silence you hear is the prosper we shared 

The only blade is a razor sharp smile 

Still the church bell rings the collective sings that still roam 

But the only thing left is the pain of nothing once more 

[Chorus] 

Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in the ground 

Where the roots claimed the earth many tioled 

To a land that now stands under no-ones command 

And her beauty let no man destroy 

So remember the gun and the damage it's done 

The last drop as been spilled for you and I 

Let there be no despair for the rule we once shared 

Brush the tear from the eye that still shines 

Where the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more 

Where the ghost still haunt for the day we come to the fore 

[Chorus: x2] 

No more tears 

No more paddy's 

Lament
