New Model Army

The New Model Army of England was formed in 1645 by the Parliamentarians in the English Civil War, and was disbanded in 1660 after the Restoration. It differed from other armies in the series of civil wars referred to as the Wars of the Three Kingdoms in that it was intended as an army liable for service anywhere in the country (including in Scotland and Ireland), rather than being tied to a single area or garrison. Its soldiers became full-time professionals, rather than part-time militia. To establish a professional officer corps, the army's leaders were prohibited from having seats in either the House of Lords or House of Commons. This was to encourage their separation from the political or religious factions among the Parliamentarians. more »

Hey there Matthew Hopkins, are you listening to us - we're still here
Boodstone, Tiger's Eye, whet the hell - we're still here
The dreaming Earth's moving in your sleep - it's all real
And everything you tried to keep so secret will one day be revealed
There's grit in the oysters there's wind in the trees
There's a full moon rising and salt in the seas
And we're outside of the line
Still running - outside of the line

Heinrich Kramer, Jacob Sprenger - we're still here
Can you hear us Torquemada - we're still here
The rolling of thunder, there's holes in the sky
We'll meet you again on the opposite side
Outside of the line
Still running - ouside of the line

The sent of datura, the beat of the drum
Seven by seven, al the ravens have flown
The crack of the lightning, there's holes in the sky
We'll meet you again on the opposite side and we're
Outside of the line
By the earth and the fire and the water and the air
By the blood pouring in my veins I swear
Outside of the line
Still running - outside of the line
