Nierly Ashes
Have we been fighting in vain
fearless attack
Hidden so deep in
haunted again
Once there were trees
full of birds
For though the storms
Meadowlands
vibrant with flowers
Carefree the songs
veils of deceit
are over and past
our children once sang
Gilding our minutes and hours
Though the thunder's rage
Clouds came and covered the sun
The breath of a baleful unease
Spectres of plague and pain
Imprisoned in twisting spells
is quieted at last
Turning to ashes
flowers in their fields
Well this nightmare's
laid
Silenced the birds
in their trees
Are we the plaything of fiends
me down in the rags
Hidden so deep
in veils of deceit
here to mourn
Imprisoned in twisting spells
Are we the plaything of fiends
Fighting in vain
All of these ghosts
or merely the dreams
Here to mourn
or merely the dreams
That we're telling ourselves
The night has left us
telling ourselves
Strive till the phantoms
That we're telling ourselves
crippled with grief
are broken
Fight till the battle
As we strive to keep
is done
The squadrons of night
of our own delusions are back
telling our
alive our belief
can't conquer the day
Nor shadows extinguish the sun
Bear a loss so great
Stories of danger
fearless attack
Stories of danger
it clouds all our hopes
Spectres of plague and pain
All of these ghosts
for the dawn
of our own delusions come back
And we'll be haunted again
