No Rest Lyrics

No Rest / NEW MODEL ARMY (No Rest For The Wicked)
Special
Four o'clock in the morning,
and still we cannot sleep
turning over turning round
twisting in our sweat
horus
they say there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what have we done?
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what is this evil that we've done??
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what is this evil that we've done??
Is it that we wanted
more than you gave
why did you put us then
in this smalltown grave
humility - is that what you want?
why did you make us then the way you did??
yes,we have pride
yes,we have pride -
is this our sin?
is this our sin?!
Special
Four o'clock in the morning,
and still we cannot sleep
turning over turning round
twisting in our sweat
horus
they say there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what have we done?
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what is this evil that we've done??
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what is this evil that we've done??
horus
Is it the times that we've been out fighting?
well i'll tell you all those times -
we never really hurt anybody
or is it that we were eating
while other people were starving
is this our crime?
is this our crime??!
Special
Four o'clock in the morning, ...
horus
they say there is no rest for the wicked ones ...
Is it the times we laughed about it all
through all those whisky nights so far away
yes,we have betrayed you
yes,we have betrayed you -
is this our crime?
is this our crime?!
Special
Four o'clock in the morning, ..
horus
they say there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what have we done?
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - what is this evil that we've done
there is no rest for the wicked ones
dear god - this is this evil that we must have done
