Rush - Red Sector A lyrics

All that we can do is just survive
All that we can do to
Help ourselves is stay alive
All that we can do is just survive
All that we can do to
Help ourselves is stay alive

Ragged lines of ragged grey
Skeletons, they shuffle away
Shouting guards and smoking guns
Will cut down the unlucky ones
I clutch the wire fence
Until my fingers bleed
A wound that will not heal
A heart that cannot feel
Hoping that the horror will recede
Hoping that tomorrow we'll all be freed
Sickness to insanity prayer to profanity
Days and weeks and months go by
Don't feel the hunger too weak to cry

I hear the sound of gunfire
At the prison gate are the liberators here?
Do I hope or do I fear?
For my father and my brother, it's too late
But, I must help my mother stand up straight

Are we the last ones left alive?
Are we the only human beings to survive?
Are we the last ones left alive?
Are we the only human beings to survive?

I hear the sound of gunfire
At the prison gate are the liberators here?
Do I hope or do I fear?
For my father and my brother, it's too late
But, I must help my mother stand up straight

Are we the last ones left alive?
Are we the only human beings to survive?
Are we the last ones left alive?
Are we the only human beings to survive?
