Go for War, Darling
03:27
|

This is the time you go for war, darling
You go for broke, until my walls fall in
You were a wild child
Overwhelmed me with your charm
Unbound, untamable
Just swaying like a windswept dove
Mayhem in my head and a truth unsaid
All the blood we shed, but we're not broken yet
This is the time you go for war, darling
You go for broke, until my walls fall in
When our story began
You held a gun to my head
I knew you would
Be troubled, 'cause I seemed to hesitate
You rescued me from my mistake
'Cause I felt so insecure, was a fool for sure
All hope went down the drain
Mayhem in my head and a truth unsaid
All the blood we shed, but we're not broken yet
Once our battle cries end
Will you still take my hand?

Elegy
03:57

Since I lost you, my prayers fall down
Betrayed by my laws, now I stand alone
Since I lost you, beyond the sea
They bury me to sacrifice my elegy
She would have cried my name
She’s gonna spark the flame
There’s no way home, there’s no way
She would have cried my name
She’s gonna spark the flame
There’s no way home, there’s no way
They say that favor’s with the brave
Under my distant stars and dire lights
I repent all I gave
They say a good man just leaves evil undone
I’m so tired of the hypocrite I have become
She gave her hair to the fire
I beg for soil at the final pyre
Oh perish, whoever he was
Who first made ships and sails
Who first tamed wood and nails
Oh perish, whoever he was
Who first made ships and sails
Who first tamed wood and nails
So hear my curse

The Wind and the Willow
04:18
|
|||
We are the enslaved, holding our crosses
for so long
Violins and bells charm the holy serpent
with their song
On a tiny glade
In the whispering breeze
Among a crooked church of the unredeemed
Down the old road
And a mud-laden creek
All is fair in love and war indeed
They wake the winds evermore
Under the old willow
Pray the weary and the weak
Like the waves on the shore
Break against the quayside
But she’s solid and serene
Crosses in the dust as the night has come for us
And the bells have died away, when the
shepherd lost his flock
Crosses in the dust as the night has come for us
And the bells have died away, when the
shepherd lost his flock
On a tiny glade
In the whispering breeze
Among a crooked church of the unredeemed
Down the old road
And a mud-laden creek
All is fair in love and war indeed
They wake the winds evermore
Under the old willow
Pray the weary and the weak
Like the waves on the shore
Break against the quayside
But she’s solid and serene
On a tiny glade in the whispering breeze
All is fair in love and war indeed
All is fair in love and war indeed
All is fair in love and war
They wake the winds evermore
Under the old willow
Pray the weary and the weak
Like the waves on the shore
Break against the quayside
But she’s solid and serene
