We Shall Overcome Songtext
von All Good Things

We′ve been fighting the midnight ghost
Drowning in the sea of bones
We've been trying to hold on
To any hope we′ve come across

Falling and falling
Through all of the giants I've come to fear
Calling and calling
I won't heed the warnings I′m meant to hear

We shall overcome
We shall not be silent
We will rise as one
You can not deny us
Won′t be broken by the fever
We'll get stronger, not get weaker
Now not dead, not done
We shall, we shall overcome


We were buried under hell
Covered by violent spells
We were broken without cure
Pulled apart from the truth

Falling and falling
Through all of the giants I′ve come to fear
Calling and calling
I won't heed the warnings I′m meant to hear

We shall overcome
We shall not be silent
We will rise as one
You can not deny us
Won't be broken by the fever
We′ll get stronger, not get weaker
Now not dead, not done
We shall, we shall overcome

Don't lay back down
The fight is on
We must be strong
And fly our flags
Of victory into the sky
Above the smoke and the fires
We will rise, oh


We shall overcome
We shall not be silent
We will rise as one
You can not deny us

We shall overcome
We shall not be silent
We will rise as one
You can not deny us
Won't be broken by the fever
We′ll get stronger, not get weaker
Now not dead, not done
We shall, we shall overcome
