Wait

Just because we’re silent doesn’t mean we acquiesce And every time you beat us down we feel it a little less But we remember every slight and show of disrespect A thousand years of pain and blood our pride is full intact The time will come for justice done, and blood will flow from sun to sun The debts we’re owed will all come due and all your power can’t shelter you From unrelenting fate ‘Til then We Wait! 'Til then we wait! Even as we bide our time and curse under our breath We give full throat to a rebel song and vow your final death Come out you black and tans if you don’t fight us like a man We’ll bring the fight into your homes in the name of Ireland! The time will come for justice done, and blood will flow from sun to sun The debts we’re owed will all come due and all your power can’t shelter you From unrelenting fate ‘Til then We Wait! 'Til then we wait! You Huns think the fight is over just because you won this round But in our hearts we’ve yet to begin to avenge these ancient wounds Eireann forever! Shall remain our battle cry And green blood runs through our veins as we count down the time The time will come for justice done, and blood will flow from sun to sun The debts we’re owed will all come due and all your power can’t shelter you From unrelenting fate ‘Til then We Wait! 'Til then we wait! We wait!
