You were a slave I’m a slave too We all do What the master Tells us to do The hammer so heavy The work is so hard The chains that bound us together Left us all scarred The burden is greater Since we lost your voice Still they hate us As if we have a choice It’s not about money It’s not about fame We can never stop Gotta do it again and again Will we ever k** again? Shed the blood of men I can feel you Like a phantom limb Will you ever scream again? Your battle hymn I can feel you Like a phantom limb You were a soldier I’m a soldier too We committed crimes Like soldiers do No I fight on In dark mail you’re clad But why can’t they see you? My pale comrade I hear their voices How dare I speak? I have no choice So hoarse and so weak Alone in the spotlight Your shadow is long All the way to the grave The halls echo with your songs Will we ever k** again? Spill the blood of men I can feel you Like a phantom limb Will you ever scream again? Your battle hymn I can feel you Like a phantom limb The road is long and the road is hard On a monster in a band But the toll it took was so much more Than we had ever planned The world has never looked so dark The pain has never felt so bad Is it wrong to try to go on When it’s all we ever had Will you ever rise again? Lights growing dim I can feel you Like a phantom limb Will I ever laugh again? World looks so grim I can feel you Like a phantom limb
