House Of Heroes - Code Name Raven Lyrics






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 stayed
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 thy names of dignity and love

You can't change the course, our fate's 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 tune 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 live like a ghost
I'll die with the free

Traitors and turncoats turned aside
Traitors who slip, sink
They're on their knees but just to beg

You're the only reason I stayed
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 thy 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 stayed
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 thy names of dignity and love
I'm on your side until my body drains of blood
Lest we betray thy names of dignity and love
I'm on your side until my body drains of blood

    D.... ....

    ohh nice thanks for this information!

  16. K.... A....

    I liked this song before I knew josh dun was in the band well used to be

    K.... A....

    Oh, good. For a little while I thought I was the only one. Everyone seems to be checking these guys out only because Josh used to be part of the band. Which is cool, I guess. But this is such a great band either way!

    K.... A....

    OoF didn't know Josh was in this band I found this song thru shuffle

    Theyre on their knees to beg for there lives

  20. f.... ....

    YAY They fixed "Panser" To "Panzer"

  21. J.... B....

    "We're on our knees but not to pray" Then what the hell are you on your knees for?

    J.... B....

    If you knew anything about this album, you would know it is a tribute to WWII. This song was about the operations of a certain spy during that time and "on our knees, but not to pray" alludes to execution. Don't jump to judgement so quickly.

    J.... B....

    A slurpy durp

    J.... B....

    THEY'RE ON THEIR KNEES BUT JUST TO BEEEEEEEEEEEG

    J.... B....

    @Or-Kaan I knew it was a tribute of some sort, or telling a album long story like no one does anymore, it's sad you don't see songwriting like this anymore. And the whole album amounts to a story.

  22. t.... ....

    great song! check out elizebeth grace's cover which i for one prefer

    t.... ....

    bruh no youtubers cover is ever better and that includes that chick who while has talent is still no where near this awesomeness
