Letra da Música: Living On Borrowed Time - Ian Stuart

From a window, directing dreams
You just ignored your people's screams
You were a king, and she was your queen
One more dictator in the corrupt East

Then came the rise of the common
man
His one strength was the love of his land
Stood against bullets, as the clubs rained down
Swore to bring the revolution around

(chorus)
You were living on borrowed time
It's time to run
You were living on borrowed time
Your time has come

You never thought they would win
the day
Against the dreaded Securitarte
Hidden tunnels and deadly lead
To you it didn't matter if the people got fed

Marxist ideals leave a bitter
taste
But you didn't close every door in your haste
Freedom's foot was jammed in the door
And now you're losing a bitter war

(chorus)

instrumental break

(chorus)

Your bloodstained flags are
tattered and torn
As a another power-base is newly born
Your evil empire came a'tumbling down
The seas closed in and your power drowned

Well Elena and Nicolae*
How does it feel now it's time to die?
You never thought you'd hear the reaper's call
Shot to bits against a bloodstained wall

(chorus) x2

For red scum!

* Nicolae Ceausescu, Romanian
leader 1947 - 1989.
