The Silver Men (Live)

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

The silver men... Came from the stars...

They brought us pain, they gave us scars...

They made us slaves, they claimed our souls...

They broke our backs, for their own goals...

And one by one, our forces fell

We were no match for men of hell

A handful came, and sealed our fate

Too few to fight, too late, too late!

Riff

Verse 2

Falling through dust clouds and laying to waste

Our farms, our homes, our bellicose states

Breaking and taming, branding and marking

Running us down right back to the stone

None were too young, none far too gone

Chorus

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Riff

Verse 3

The skies once blue, we'll never see

The life we knew will cease to be

And those who rise in future far

Will never know our nearest star

Riff

Verse 4

To them of silver, the men of hell

We showed that, too, we knew it well

A host of suns, to skies we cast

Renounced the future, forgot the past

The tunnels sealed, and so our fate

For those above, too late, too late!

Chorus

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Riff

Bridge

Chorus

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Run to the ground, run out of sight

Run to the ground, run out of sight
