BARREN EARTH On Lonely Towers

I will rest here And I might not awake Was there ever a place for one to lie It must be here An ocean green My hands on stone Scarred and battled Shreds of banner cloth Dance recklessly in a desolate breeze Clinging to their weathered rods Perched on lonely towers Praying for faith under darkening clouds Songs of chaos burning holes in the sky Praying for faith under darkening clouds They marched on lonely towers Their screams live on As wraiths in the wind And only when time ends Their voices may be stilled Dire winds Break the leaves Failing suns Beyond the mist Who are you? A promise from the spirits of life Darkness has ceased To flood my mind I will wait until the dawn I will wait until the dawn to die My body is weak But my will takes flight I will wait until the dawn I will wait until the dawn to die And as you speak My fear subsides I will wait until the dawn I will wait until the dawn arrives
