|
It comes again |
|
When the temples are shining in golden light |
|
And day fades away |
|
Deep inside |
|
There's a feeling that i have not chosen well |
|
My role in this play |
|
All this time |
|
I have been a good soldier whose will was strong |
|
So i played my part |
|
A painful song |
|
Is the cry of a friend as they raise the knife |
|
To cut out his heart |
|
[bridge:] |
|
I've never tasted fear but now i know |
|
Fearful nights and days of woe |
|
Our raging treasure hunt has ended here |
|
What's the use of all gold when death is near? |
|
[chorus:] |
|
State of siege |
|
A peaceful ending out of reach |
|
Our vessels were burning on the beach |
|
The general, he left us no choice but to die in this land |
|
In their eyes |
|
We were heralds of gods who would bring liberation |
|
Far too late |
|
They did realize what we bring is damnation |
|
[bridge:] |
|
I've never tasted fear but now i know |
|
Fearful nights and days of woe |
|
I've heard my promised piece of land's right here |
|
I'll resign it, my friend, my death is near! |
|
[chorus:] |
|
[canon, line 1:] |
|
Hear me, god, i am a simple man who's praying for a chance to return home again |
|
Oh i've shot so many men, i'm sick of killing, save my life, get me out of this land |
|
[canon, line 2:] |
|
Hear me, god, to stay alive |
|
Hear me, god, i am a man who's praying for a chance to stay alive |
|
[canon, line 3:] |
|
Save my life, i'm sick of killing |
|
[chorus:] 2x |
