Code Name: Raven Lyrics - House Of Heroes

Maybe you'll see me on the evening news 

Maybe you'll see me with a bag over my head 

If that's the case then I've met my doom 

If that's the case then my comrades are dead 

And I don't hate my enemy 

I hate the cloud he's brought over my land 

There's no virtue in killing a man 

Neither is there virtue in being afraid to stand 

But I saw the black coats forming lines 

They hit our beaches running 

We're on our knees but not to pray 

You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee 

I'd rather die than live without mercy and love 

Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames 

Lest we betray the names of dignity and love 

You can't change the course of fates sealed long ago 

But hope is not lost, code name Corbeau 

We trade their secrets at cost for our lives 

The panzer is strong, the raven is wise 

I turn my ears to the BBC 

I can hear them, they can't hear me 

I long to forget all the horrors I've seen 

I'll live like a ghost, I'll die with the free 

Traitors and turncoats turned aside 

Traitors' loose lips sink 

They're on their knees but just to beg 

You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee 

I'd rather die than live without mercy and love 

Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames 

Lest we betray the names of dignity and love 

Inside the fuselage, valiant young soldiers singing songs 

Fear not my downcast brothers we are the strong arm of the law 

By land and air and sea on wings of destiny we ride 

Sing while the city decays, sing while we go up in flames 

You're the only reason I stay in this coward's melee 

I'd rather die than live without mercy and love 

Sing while the city decays, we'd rather go up in flames 

Lest we betray the names of dignity and love 

I'm on your side until my body drains of blood 

Lest we betray the names of dignity and love 

I'm on your side until my body drains of blood
