One By One Lyrics

Hungry Kids Of Hungary One By One

One by one our defenses were foiled

In the turning of the soil new bodies were forged

And we burned our last bridge

Cast all memories into the gorge

And it was never our intent

To carry the torch of our fathers' dissent

And it won't pass between

Our trembling hands anymore

And I know you care a lot

But who would dare impart

Such a stupid thought

On such a callow heart

So let's make a break for the west wall and run

One by one our defenses were foiled

In the turning of the soil new bodies were forged

And we burned our last bridge

Cast all memories into the gorge

Oh you're banging your head

Searching for subtext, you should take it as read

Leave the waking dead

To put their restless remains to bed

And I know you care a lot

But who would dare impart

Such a stupid thought

On such a callow heart

So let's make a break for the west wall and run

And It's easy to feel lost

When you're tied to the helm

Of a ship so far off course

It's overwhelming I know

So Maybe the answer's to just let go

Let it go

No, no we got it wrong

Why should we be the ones to just fall along?

Playing dumb just to belong

And I know you care a lot

But who would dare impart

Such a stupid thought

On such a callow heart

So let's make a break for the west wall and run
