The walls, it seems, are closing in
I cannot save us from the darkness
Where we end and they begin
That’s the center of our blindness
Where do we hide? I do not know
Their hawkish smiles grotesque and hated
Soon the blood will overflow
The troubled times anticipated
Come now
I will cover you
Give you shelter from the crowd
Come now
I will cover you
As night settles like a shroud
I’ve loved you from the day we met
And I will love you till forever
We are tied, do not forget
Ties this world just cannot server
I’m so afraid of what’s to come
Uncertainty fills all my senses
The angry tones, the beating drum
Breaking down all my defenses
Hush now
Fear is holding you
You repeat that we are cursed
Come now
I will cover you
They will need to break me (first)
First the men and then the rest
The pounding of the drum
Constant pressure in our chest
But we will not succumb
Yes we will overcome
The vultures circle in the sky
They fly above, anticipating
Not much hope for you and I
This they know and they are waiting
The happy days of summers past
Just do your best to not remember
Forget the songs - they’ll never last
Our innocence - a dying ember
Come now
Let me look at you
All the fear within your eyes
Come now
I will cover you
From the vultures in the (skies)
Skies of terror from the west
We froze up, cold and numb
Constant pressure in our chest
Will we not succumb?
Will we be overcome?
Run for our lives
Don’t look back
Must go on
Do not stop
Must go on
