nina hagen - redemption day lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’ve wept for those
who suffered long
but how i weep
for those who’ve gone
into rooms of grief
and questioned wrong
but keep on k!lling

[verse 2]
it grieves the soul
to feel such things
but weak to watch without speaking
oh, what mercy sadness brings
if god is willing
[chorus]
there’s a train
that’s heading straight
to heaven’s gate
to heaven’s gate
and on the way
child and man
and woman wait
watch and wait
for redemption day

[verse 3]
fire rages
in the streets
it swallows
everything it meets
it’s just an image often seen
on television
on television

[verse 4]
come leadеrs come
you men of “great”
lеt us here you pontificate
your many virtues laid to waste
and we aren’t listening
[chorus 2]
there’s a train
that’s heading straight
to heaven’s gate
to heaven’s gate
and on the way
child and man
and woman wait
watch and wait
for redemption day
oh, yeah

[verse 5]
what do you have for us today
throw us a bone
but save the plate
why we waited
until so late
was there no oil
to excavate

[verse 6]
no riches in trade
for the fate
of every person
who died in hate
throw us a bone you men of “great”
[chorus outro]
there’s a train
that’s heading straight
to heaven’s gate
to heaven’s gate
and on the way
child and man
and woman wait
watch and wait
for redemption day
