Lyrics


1. FATE WILL OBLIGE

I watch you cry, nature has spoken
What can I do? No consolation

Fate will oblige
You cannot escape, there's nowhere to hide
Death's destructive plans are stalking, closer everyday
We won't know 'til we've gone, where we went wrong

In crimson blood, flowing but lifeless
Her body lies, twisted and frozen
Angels appear, to take her hand
And whisper softly, I cannot hear
A white light blinds me, then subsides
I realise.


2. AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD

Across the Menai stand the chosen ones
Within the groves of sacred oaks their incantations rise
Women dance and bless the ground this day
Will there be victory or death and glory? None can say

The restless legions stand, await the call
Among the swollen ranks they wait to cross the raging sea
Masséd foreign horde is thousands strong
Sons of the Tiber from the seven hills, they march on and on

At the edge of the world, we stand and fall
At the end of days, hear the final call
As the breaking dawn shows the sacrifice, time will tell
In the heart of this land we still dwell

The ruthless warriors clash upon the shore
Defenders broke on legionnaires on that fateful moon
Screams of wounded from the killing ground
The children will be victims shown no mercy, left to die

A fallen son
Sees what greed has done
Futile theatre of war
He fades in silence
And all hope is gone.


3. CRY

You dreamt of a land far away
And you speak to me now you're gone
There's no place that I would rather be
Than with you in this moment in time

And I cry for the love that you leave me
And now, I cry for the days gone by

Don't leave me, I don't wanna be alone
You know you were the only one
I sit and I cherish the memories
It's so painful to remember

And I think about what my life would have been
If you were still here beside me
And I wonder if you approve of the choices I've made
I'm loving you, I still need you.
