The Pale Lyrics


The blaze of the funeral pyre

And the raze of the cities conspire

Judgement for those who bequest

And the gravestones of ancients bereft

Fall to the knees in a blink

Iron ships downward they sink

And the burden it falls into thee

And the people greet death and beliefs

A violent uprising ensues

Followers of scarlet and blue

Mighty the walls of their lair

And crumbled they do now despair

Dreams and the echoes of life

But they are all destroyed by the strife

An age of the fires and the grief

An age of no re ward to reap

Fallen now

They fall now to snow that surrounds

Their children now lay in the ground

Frost now a layer on their skin

And the winter sun making the gleam

Weapons of steel doused in blood

The snow covers warring in mud

An age of calamity due

For the people of scarlet and blue

Bodies in bloodied decay

The stench dominating the day

Rising the souls from within

And the death of our kin
