Desperate Ground

The Thermals Desperate Ground Lyrics
1.Born To Kill

I was born to kill
I was made to slay
Unafraid to spill blood on the land
When you command I will
I am locked to fate
Locked to the lives I take
I will never be done,
I'll always be hungry
And each final breath I take burns a bright fire inside of me
And it keeps me alive, it keeps me alive

I was born to kill
I was made to slay
Unafraid to feel
Blood on my hands,
When you command I will
I am locked to joy
Locked to the lives I destroy
I will never be dry, I'll never be satisfied
Burns a bright fire inside of me
And it keeps me alive
It keeps me alive
Till the day in the dirt I lie
Till my ashes scatter in the sea
I will not be denied my destiny

I was born to kill
I was made to slay
Unafraid to sill blood on the land
When you command I will
I was born to kill
When you command I will


2.You Will Be Free

I run in the darkest of tunnels and climb to the highest degrees
I was toured in the forest and drown in the sea
I'm stuck in the cold in the blue
I keep looking over my shoulder for you
For you are biting you will find me

You will find me
You will find me
You will follow me always and dead be eventually
You will find me
You will find me
You will find me.

I'm losing the sun, losing my light I struggle to see
First I fear to fall now I'm scared to sleep.

I'm trapped on my back in the dark
I feel you so close though I know you're still far
but you are mine and you will find me

You will find me scared and alone
weeding and tour
leaving you so barely alive
better than bruise waiting for you.

You will find me
You will find me
You will follow me always and dead me eventually
You will find me
You will find me
You will ..all my.. and the snow and the hell
and the dirt and the..to breathe
Oh you will find me.
You will find me, hey.


3.The Sunset

I am never alone, my shadows are close
Where I need them to be
I keep them with me

I am never afraid
My shadows are close
I am safe when they stay
They whisper the way
They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won't pass me by again

I stray from the path
My shadows are late, they escape from my mind
They fall far behind

Now I feel free to kill
But I know my shadows be follow me still
And they probably always will

They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won't pass me by again
Now the sunset won't pass me by
Won't pass me by again

I am always alert
Although my enemies are few
I know the ones you will hurt
Are the closest to you
I am always awake
In the fear they are gone
But my shadows are fate
They've been here all along

They hold my head to the sky
Point my eyes to the end
Now the sunset won't pass me by again
Now the sunset won't pass me by
Won't pass me by again.


4.I Go Alone


5.The Sword By My Side

Sun at my back
Wind in my way
The path wake await, wake await
winter came.

The hand in the end of my arm holds tight
knows what we fight for.

Now the hand at the end of my arm holds tight
waits for the sword.

Moon in the sky, wading away
The path like time, like all time will pass away.

The hand at the end of my arm, racks of lights
head it's a war
The hand of the end of my arm
Where is the sword?

The sword by my side
Will cut the hole in the sun
Will be no where to hide.
The sword by my side
Will allow me to be
the last thing my enemy will see.

The hand at the end of my arm, racks of lights
head it's a war
The hand of the end of my arm
Where is the sword?

The sword by my side
Will cut the hole in the sun
Will be no where to hide.
The sword by my side
Will allow me to be
the last thing my enemy will see.

The sword by my side
It will meet me to lie
To a hole in the..will I die
Yeah when I die.


6.You Will Find Me

I run in the darkest of tunnels and climb to the highest degrees
I was tored in the forest and drowned in the sea
I'm stuck in the cold and the blue
I keep looking over my shoulder for you
For you are mine and you will find me
You will find me, you will find me
You will follow me, always and ... me eventually
You will find me, you will find me
You will find me

I'm loosing the sun, loosing my life
I struggle to see
First I dreamed to fall now I'm scared to sleep
I'm trapped on my back in the dark
I feel you so close though I know you're still far
For you are mine and you will find me
You will find me, you will find me
You will find me, scared and alone
Weeding in sour, bleeding you so
Buried alive, battered and bruised
Waiting for you
You will find me, you will find me
You will follow me, always and ... me eventually
You will find me, you will find me
You will find me
You will crawl on my trail and the snow and my hell
When the dirt in the moment of bree
Oh, you will find me, you will find me
You will find me, hey.


7.Faces Stay With Me

The friends I've lost
I can clearly see
The man I've ended not forgotten to me
I remember their faces
As I set them free
Faces stay with me.

The world I've left
I left in the dark
I fight for you now
They will know who we are.
When I walk to the crown
Will I save in the sea
I picture your face
It's all I can see

Faces stay with me
When I close my hand is
Faces stay with me
When I stare at the sky
And when I erase I came up and see
Faces stay with me.

The f.. I fear
If it comes for me
If there is no way
Of escaping
I will welcome their faces
as the last thing I see
Faces stay with me
Faces stay with me.
Faces stay with me, ohh
Yeah, faces stay with me.


8.The Howl Of The Winds

Deep in the night, far from the dark
It be just wind, finally conquered
The urge to fight, the howl of the winds
And my head still rings

Deep in the trees, far from the path
No need for peace, finally conquered
The urge to fight, is slowly faded
Without a sound, the howl of the winds
And my head still rings

I open my eyes, from the sky deep sing
The howl of the winds,
And my head still rings
The howl of the winds, oh

Deep in the dirts, far from the past
But need to leave, finally conquered
The will so well, it's slowly faded
Without a sound, the howl of the winds
And my head still rings

I open my eyes, from the sky deep sing
The howl of the winds,
And my head still rings.


9.Where I Stand

Alone in the night I'm awake
Knowing it's only a matter of time.
No use to run, soon they will come,
Here I will wait!
Seeking a dream, a dream with you
Deep in a dream I have here with you
No use to run, soon they will come,
I will defend, here it will end!

So I will love you when I can,
When I can!
Until they kill me where I stand,
Where I stand, oh!
No use to run, soon they will come...
Alone in the night, lying awake
Knowing it's always a matter of fate, oh
No use to run, soon they will come
Here I will wait, yeah!

Then I will love you when I can,
When I can
Until they kill me where I stand,
Where I stand
No use to run, soon they will come
No use to hide, we are there already tonight
Soon they will come, I will defend
Here it will end!


10.Our Love Survives

Our love it's true, it's why we fight
What we defend, and though our love is new
In still beginning, will be the end

The world we knew, washed away
The life we led, led us astray
And now we face, our greatest foe
But we fear not for we know
Our love survives, our love survives
Our love survives, it will never die
It will outlive the earth, the sun and the sky

Our love destroys, from the cities we burn
To the fools we betray
Our love survives, it will always be
No matter if we die, we will live eternally
Our love survives,

Our love it's true, it's why we fight
What we defend, and though our love is new
In still beginning, will be the end


The world we knew, washed away
The life we led, led us astray
And now we face, our greatest foe
But we fear not for we know
Our love survives, our love survives
Our love survives, it will never die
It will outlive the earth, the sun and the sky

Our love destroys, from the cities we burn
To the fools we betray
Our love survives, it will always be
No matter if we die, we will live eternally
Our love survives,
Our love survives, our love survives
Our love survives, it will never die.
