Here Comes The War

HERE COMES THE WAR

Upon the hand that wears the ring

Upon the land where locusts sing

There lies a shadow that begins

To make fools of foolish kings

 

By fear, hunger, hate and pride

By secret tears never cried  

By flood, famine, fire and rod

By supplication to their God

 

Here comes the war

Over the border

Right to your door

Here comes the war

 

Upon this band of blinded men

Upon a time where night descends

In the void that darkness brings

The air is filled with raven’s wings

 

By fear, hunger, hate and pride

By all those souls who have died

By all to come, by all your dreams

The sirens sound, the silence screams

 

Here comes the war

Over the border

Right to your door

Here comes the war

Powerful! "The air is filled with raven's wings" A very bleak reality.
