Nick Holmes - Gallows Bird lyrics

A red sun on the horizon Marks the hour of your call Somber is the one whose eyes are still veiled Watching your departure As mine watch you arrive... BIRD VERSE I Your hands are tied Your mask applied The mark of shame You wear to all eyes No glimpse of light Can touch your mind So black inside As you face your crime Mmm... Dreams are unable to come Mmm... With you on this journey that's just begun BIRD VERSE II Not a sigh As your noose is tied Is it pride Or are you frozen inside? Mmm... Fear is unable to come Mmm... With you on this journey that's just begun How can I make peace with my path When life has come to this? Chased by the shadow of my past Eclipsed by what lies ahead As the last ray of hope is lost Fight and resistance Nothing remains to hold Me to this existence
