If I fall down again take anything you want But all I ask of you is to leave my loving cup But that won't happen, no, you'll have nothing to leave Cause a soul miner doesn't quit he works until he bleeds Everything I've got I got from working in these mines and I feel you're mine Everything I have I worked so damn hard on my knees for a soul miner's keep Dust on my face is from the ore I'm scraping away To mine you out of here will take the rest of my days But that's my job, they say, if I work it won't take long To lay awake and spill the beans with you 'till dawn Everything I've got I got from working in these mines and I feel you're mine Everything I have I worked so damn hard on my knees for a soul miner's keep I feel, I feel the walls coming down (coming down around me)

In Normandy, soldiers lost, their iron horses turned to dust As seagulls soar above the sea they lie upon their war machines Twisted poles of steel and rust; the consequence of mislead trust Ruins of warfare speak a language of their own The sky is watching all the things we've done Indifferent to the lost platoons, a shame that we've been through Operation blue Across white caps an angry pack has come to take their homeland back Ruins of warfare speak a language of their own The sky is watching all the things we've done Indifferent to the lost platoons, a shame that we've been through Operation blue The beach is here with nothing near A long lost town destroyed with fear Hear all the sounds, the bombs are blasting all around Better duck and cover, put your face to the ground The sky is watching all the things we've done Indifferent to the lost platoons, a shame that we've been through Operation blue

If I only suffered like you think you do I'd be calling out for help like you never do You say you're all alone but you're in a big group How'd you like to step in another man's shoes? You can sit there without a worry Doing all the things you wanna do But when you get on top of the world Who's gonna follow you? If I only suffered like you think you do Well, I'd be calling out for help like you never do When I get out of bed I don't bitch like you do Get out and put on your dancing shoes You can sit there without a worry Doing all the things you wanna do But when you get on top of the world Who's gonna follow you? If I only suffered like you think you do I'd be calling out for help like you never do You say you're all alone but you're in a big group How'd you like to step in another man's shoes? You can sit there without a worry Doing all the things you wanna do But when you get on top of the world Who's gonna follow you?

Storm's coming across the Everglades Pack your things we might go out away Don't have to change your name or face As long as you can keep up the pace Walk on the levee all day Don't let it get washed out by the rain Storm's coming day by day The levee wasn't put here to stay Storms coming across the Everglades Pack your things we might go out to stay Businessmen can't keep the people safe If the storm comes it'll make the change Walk on the levee all day Don't let it get washed out by the rain Storm's coming day by day The levee wasn't put here to stay Walk on the levee, before it's coming down Walk on the levee, while it's dry ground Walk on the levee, it's coming down coming down Walk on the levee....
