Violent Resistance by Old Trees Lyrics

[Verse 1: Old Trees]
Violent resistance, damaging their property
Never submissive, no respect for authority
In the middle of the night, black flags high
We crossed barbed wire and met on the other side

[Pre-Chorus: Old Trees]
The horror we saw inside, only our compassion guided us
Prisoners no more we said, and smashed in their cages

[Chorus: Old Trees]
And if they come after us, this is what I’ll say
Over my dead body, I’d rather die today
But first I’ll tell you I love you and say farewell to my friends
When I fell dead on the floor, I fell on my own demands

[Verse 2: Old Trees]
This was the night, The night I met my fate
But I stood my head up high, executed by the state
For every warrior down, a million born in its place
For every warrior down, a million born in its place
[Bridge: Old Trees]
For every warrior down, a million born in its place
For every warrior down, a million born in its place
For every warrior down, a million born in its place
For every warrior down, a million born in its place

[Chorus: Old Trees]
And if they come after us, this is what I’ll say
Over my dead body, I’d rather die today
But first I’ll tell you I love you and say farewell to my friends
When I fell dead on the floor, I fell on my own demands
