Run Silent Run Deep lyrics
Artist Name - Iron Maiden
Song Lyrics - Run Silent Run Deep
 Send Iron Maiden "Run Silent Run Deep" Ringtones to your Cell  (Harris/Dickinson) The convoy lights are dead ahead The Merchantmen lay in their bed, The trump of... diesels hammers down, In the oily sea - the killing ground, His knuckles white his eyes alight, He slams the hatch on the deadly night, A cunning fox in the chickens lair A hound of hell and the devil don't care [Chorus:] Running silent, Running deep, we are your final prayer, Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare, A silent death lies waiting, for all of you below, Running silent, Running deep, sink into your final sleep Chill the hearts of fighting men, In open ocean wondering when? The lethal silver fish will fly The boat will shiver - men will die A cast of millions - a part to play Killer? Victim? or fool for a day Obeying an order - men have to die Us or them - a well rehearsed lie [Chorus] The lifeboats shattered the hull is torn, The tar black smell of burning oil, On the way down to Davy Jones, Every man for himself - you're on your own The wolf eyes watch the crosswire 'Stern tubes ready', 'Aim and fire!' They can pin some medal on your chest, But in two more weeks - dead like the rest [Chorus] |
