Talion - Sanctuary lyrics

rate me

<b>Sanctuary</b> by <i>Talion</i><br />n the dead of night, I slipped away

I left my home, my own country

For political views, they persecuted me

Freedom for all, democracy

To set my people free

Got to find a way

From the grip of tyranny

Got to get away

Give to me, sanctuary

Give to me, sanctuary

As dusk casts a shadow, my fate had dawned

In this holy shrine, I pray to the Lord

Within these walls, to fulfill my plight

For what I believe, I must fight the good fight

To set my people free

Got to find a way

From the grip of tyranny

Got to get away

Give to me, sanctuary

Give to me, sanctuary

Prisoners of conscience, see the country's shame

Faceless politicians, playing power games

Out of light comes darkness, out of pleasure comes pain

We must fight against oppression, time and time again

The sands of time are running low

This holy sanctuary, my home no more

Now I'll die, your soul bleeds to death

Now I await, my passing breath

To set my people free

Got to find a way

From the grip of tyranny

Got to get away

Give to me, sanctuary

Give to me, sanctuary

Give to me, sanctuary

Give to me, sanctuary
