Stonecircle - Seven Sleepers lyrics

rate me

(lyrics by D. Jole/music by G. Schoemaker)<br />

Red mists of the morning<br />

Rise from the battleground.<br />

Red sun on the water,<br />

Weeping without sound.<br />

Silent wind blows empty<br />

On blackened rock and bone.<br />

Fields of grass are shining glass.<br />

The ravens softly moan.<br />

They're trying to<br />

CHORUS<br />

Wake the seven sleepers,<br />

Deep within their cave<br />

When the fire comes, burns everyone,<br />

Who will dig your grave?<br />

Wake the ancient huntsman,<br />

Don't let dead dogs lie.<br />

Hunt with the red-eared hounds of hell,<br />

Ride screaming through the sky.<br />

Children of the warriors,<br />

World crumbling at their feet,<br />

Can't drink the blackened water,<br />

Can't eat the burning wheat.<br />

Men are out a-hunting<br />

To win the dragon's claws,<br />

But steel knives and empty lives<br />

Can't save them from it's jaws.<br />

Their screams will<br />

CHORUS<br />

Fields and hills lie barren,<br />

Plows rusting on their sides.<br />

Mighty ships lie empty,<br />

Rotting in the tide.<br />

Curtains flutter softly,<br />

Like moths against a light.<br />

Women turn from cities burned<br />

And vanish from our sight.<br />

They're going to<br />

CHORUS
