I speak to you for the first time as Prime Minister
in a solemn hour for the life of our country"
No officer or man,no brigade or division,
which grapples at close quarters with the enemy,
can fail to make a worthy contribution to the general result
A tremendous battle is raging in France and Flanders.
The enemy, by a remarkable combination of air bombing and heavily armored tanks,
have broken through the French defenses
and strong columns of their armored vehicles are ravaging the open country......
Sanctus, espiritus
Sanctus, espiritus
Sanctus, espiritus
Sanctus, espiritus
Sanctus, espiritus
Sanctus, espiritus
In my darkest hours I could not foresee
That the tide could turn so fast to this degree
Can\'t believe my eyes
How can you be so blind
Is the heart of stone, no empathy inside
Time keeps on slipping away and we haven’t learned
So in the end now what have we gained?
Sanctus espiritus, ,
redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus espiritus,
insanity is all around us
Sanctus, espiritus
is this what we deserve, can we break free
from Chains of never-ending agony?
Are they themselves to blame, the misery, the pain?
Didn’t we let go, allowed it, let it grow?
If we can’t restrain the beast which dwells inside
It will find it’s way somehow, somewhere in time
Will we remember all of the suffering
cause if we bet in vain
Sanctus espiritus,
redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus espiritus,
insanity is all around us
Sanctus espiritus,
is this what we deserve, can we break free
from Chains of never-ending agony?
Sanctus espiritus
Sanctus espiritus
Sanctus espiritus,
redeem us from our solemn hour
Sanctus espiritus,
insanity is all around us
Sanctus espiritus,
is this what we deserve, can we break free
from Chains of never-ending agony?
Sanctus espiritus, ,
never-ending agony
Sanctus espiritus,
never-ending agony
Sanctus espiritus,
is this what we deserve, can we break free
from Chains of never-ending agony?
