Night Versions - Amazing Feats of Strength Lyrics

We proudly march straight up to the guillotine
We bid farewell to sights unseen
We will not break, the more you give, the more we take
Our bruised and bloodied hands reach up and shake
And if you think it's over, if you think it's over
If you think you've won this war
You may think we're done, but we've only begun
To come crawling back for more

Thought we'd die like those before us
But we won't be put to shame
We'll astound you and confound you
With our Amazing Feats of Strength
With our Amazing Feats of Strength

With each new blow, the desire in us grows
To rise above this circumstance we face
We feel no pain, forty lashes with your chain
We turn the other cheek with no disgrace
And if the powers that be, cast us into the sea
With lead weights tied to our wrists
In an hour's time, they'd be shocked to find
Us right behind them with blazing fists

Thought we'd die like those before us
But we won't be put to shame
We'll astound you and confound you
With our Amazing Feats of Strength
With our Amazing Feats of Strength

We proudly march straight up to the guillotine
We bid farewell to sights unseen
We will not break, the more you give the more we take
Our bruised and bloodied hands reach up and shake

Thought we'd die like those before us
But we won't be put to shame
We'll astound you and confound you
With our Amazing Feats of Strength
With our Amazing Feats of Strength
