I hear them coming

We'll hide here 'til we're safe

Just hold tight to me

Until they find what they need

Hush little Yael

            C
I hear them leavin' for the beach

Where on the stone and sand

E                           
Your sister finds her sleep

Wet your jaws for the world

We're going back to the darkest hours

Where our kind has confirmed

We are the masters of sin and slaughter

So lift your voices high
(Higher than the mountains of their spite!)
Dm
We are
We are (the fearless, the ruthless)
F               C
The heralds of our time

She had to watch

                      C
Him pull the trigger in her daddy's back

Put his face to the waves 'til he took his last

Am                     C
Then he took her life with the butt of a gun

 F                    E
Four years from when her life had begun

Am           C
Rise, rise, rise, rise

We're all weavers at the loom of slaughter

But we will rise and make these victims our martyrs

He made me watch as my family died

He'll never know what its like

So cut him slow 'til his soul takes flight
[Interlude]
Am
Hush Yael

                   C
They found him and they put him in chains

F
The one who broke our home

E
Is finally feelin' pain

Am
Hush little Yael

               C
I'm sorry your lungs are empty

F
But in your new home

E
That man will not be seen
[Outro]
Am
End him slow

Am
End him slow!

Am
Make him feel the rocks that her temple rode

Am
End him slow
