I Broke the Vein Lyrics

I broke the vein
With a needle so long and sharp
I know the way
Down into the dark
A nightbird sings
I didn't hear a thing and
I broke the veinI took the train
From Berlin to the sea
I took the train
To harbors such as these
The engine steams
I'm trimmin' up my wings and
I took the trainThe stars will shine
And the moon will light my way (2x)I cast away
The winners blist a cold my hands around
and a shackle made of gold
The ships are going down
The captain calls the heat

I cast awayAnd the stars will shine
And the moon will light my way (5x)March your little feet
The soldiers in the sand
Beat your drums so loud
And wave your golden flagLet, well let's sunk this place
By god some hand in hand
Feel the fire come down upon the holy landI broke the vein
With a needle so long and sharp
I know the way
Down into the dark
A nightbird sings
I didn't hear a thing and
I broke the vein
