Lyrics

Raise Your Arms
I see the boats in the harbor tonight.
They've been here the past few days.
Soldiers come for our enlistment.
There's going to be a changing of our ways.
Smoke fires tell of last night's bombings.
Innocents are dead along the beach.
this call to arms is like a watered flame.
They will burn or we will smolder in defeat
(CHORUS)
Raise your arms to the sky and wave to us our last goodbye.
All the children sing, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
(Bridge)
Stand here with me now.
I see a thousand rockets explode for you.
Is it our last dime?
Stand here with me now.
Let me look into your eyes again
Is it the last time?

Shed no tears for your fishermen.
We trade our nets for these guns.
We are the shores on which their waves must break
More of us will die to make them run..
(CHORUS)
Raise your arms to the sky and wave to us our last goodbye.
All the children sing, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
