Empire Of A Thousand Days lyrics

Traitors - Heathens....don't thank me!
Empires - Princes....don't thank me!
The fellowship started here
With bleeding hearts and fine cause
The brotherhood started here
With fevered brows - malevolence
Beaten - Howling....I'll drag you down!
Kneeling - Cowering....I'll drag you right down!
Soldiers - Victims....don't thank me!
Warriors - Pilgrims....don't thank me!
The fellowship started here
With righteousness and lunacy
The covenant started here
With screaming souls and vitriol

Can there be comfort left
For one who lies bleeding in the fields
Remorse and second thoughts are not enough
To shield me from the consequence

Horses - Warcries....Don't thank me!
Forces - Armies....Don't thank me!
Dedicate your life to this
With blood vows and loyalty
Dedicate your life to me
With suicide - atrocity
Onward - Fervent....I'll drag you down!
Torture - Torment....I'll drag you right down!

Can there be a heaven still
For one who lies bleeding in the fields
A pardon for these actions and passions
Committed in the name of our salvation

Innocence of acquaintance or liaison
The darker side of hunger and need
We reach a path -
the way beyond reason
Now we have sown that nemicidal seed
And I can count on you to let me bleed

An act of trust is as fragile as a child
And we have led as far as we can lead
We'll make a pact from threats and insecurities
Things will arise from lies and disagreements
And I can count on you to let me bleed

Let the meek lie down!
For they shall not inherit the earth from me
Let the meek lie down!
I will never set your people free
Take no prisoners!
For they shall not receive any hope from me
Take no prisoners!
I will never set your people free
Death is the enemy!
For he waits in the field of blood for me
Death is the enemy!
I will never set your people free
Let the meek lie down! Let the meek lie down!
Let the meek lie down! Down!
Let the meek, let the meek lie down!
