3000 miles of ocean 200 tons of stone
A place to stand for something dreamt but not known
I don't need you controlling what I can say wear or read
You want my freedom and my money
Those are things that I need
There'll be blood on the hill
You keep imposing your will
Trying to force me to change into someone
Who believes what you believe in
And I wont be caught standing still
There'll be blood on the hill
I'm a citizen soldier beneath an overbearing hand
Im just trying to provide for my family the best that I can
You see my opposition as violence
As if I should say nothing at all
I wont be running or hiding Ill be standing tall
There'll be blood on the hill
You keep imposing your will
Trying to force me to change into someone
Who believes what you believe in
And I won't be caught standing still
So many paid the price
So we could build a paradise
Free from forced opinions
That never were real
I am not moved by your anger
Shaking fists instead of open hands
Youve been deceived by those keeping power
Anyway that they can
There'll be blood on the hill
You keep imposing your will
Trying to force me to change
But I never will
There'll be blood on the hill
Until you've had your fill
Today we're making our stand
Fire at will.
Today we're making our stand
There'll be blood on the hill
