I raise my head...
Above the fields
Weary clouds descend upon me
So long to all...
I ever cherished
Broken remnants lie...
Dust is black, soaked with blood...
And their accusing eyes are fixed on me
Pillars of the earth seem to crack
And now I know there's no coming back...
I'm past the point of no return!
All the faces
All the smiles
For...
Gotten traces
Of what once once so... dear
Forgotten traces
Of what was once mine
I mourn
For all my dead and lament the unborn...
This battle left their bodies scattered, broken, numb and scorned
With all my banners torn I walk among the red...
I never stayed
The spirit of my homeland beckons me
I walked away
From all the things I held so dear
For one brief moment
The wind whispers of hope
And promises to carry me away
And then
In spite of everything
I spiral through the clouds
Desperate to fly
So I ascend
The ground falls away!
The ground falls away!
Until I start to fall...
(fall away, fall away)
Again I see... there's no one here but me
Man
Martyr
Fool
Father
Son
Soldier
Alone
I break down and...
Suffer... for all my blind ambitions!
With all
My banners torn I walk among the red...
My time has pa**ed and though I last I feel as though I'm dead
I mourn for all the scorned and lament the unborn...
I never stayed
The spirit of my homeland beckons me
I walked away
From all the things I held so dear
All the faces
All the smiles
For... gotten traces
Of what was once mine
The spirit of my homeland beckons me
