I've been black my entire life and ne'er have I strayed The bells peel for me Give me my berth I've walked the twisted lightning I've seen the crystallisation I have untarnished wings Give me my berth The bells peel for me Give me the chance that speaks o' full volume Let the scars die in the ashes Of all this pain beauty is born Of the burning heart of the darkest ember The fire spews forth in torrential violence Give me my berth The bells peel for me I've seen the pestilence of the silent waters The hubris in my brother's brow The sickness in the succumb of my sisters The ill-chance of the fated child I've seen the madness in the living wreck Heard the shriek of hysteria sow The living steep of our civilisation Give me my berth The bells peel for me Résurgam I shall rise again I shall rise again I shall rise again I've seen myself in the straight jacket I've seen the motled motley jaunt I've lain for days for the dawning I've haunted the Earth for too long Give me my berth The bells peel for me Let this fallen star in the deepest agony Fly free Give me my berth The bells peel for me Give me my berth The bells peel for me Give me my birth The bells peel for me Résurgam I shall rise again I shall rise again I shall rise again
