Run Silent Run Deep - 2015 Remaster

The convoy lights are dead ahead

The merchantmen lay in their bed

The thump of diesels hammers down

In the oily sea-the killing ground

His knuckles white his eyes alight

He slams the hatch on the deadly night

A cunning fox in the chickens lair

A hound of hell and the devil don't care

Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer

Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare

A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below

Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep

Chill the hearts of fighting men

In open ocean wondering when

The lethal silver fish will fly

This boat will shiver, men will die

A cast of millions, a part to play

Killer, victim, or fool for a day?

Obeying an order, men have to die

Us or them, a well rehearsed lie

Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer

Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare

A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below

Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep

The lifeboats shattered the hull is torn

The tar black smell of burning oil

On the way down to Davy Jones

Every man for himself, you're on your own

The wolf eyes watch the crosswire

'Stern tubes ready', 'aim and fire'

They can pin some medal on your chest

And in two more weeks dead like the rest

Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer

Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare

A silent death lies awaiting for all of you below

Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep

Runing silent, runing deep, we are your final prayer

Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
