from the gallows

Paradise Lost

Born in duress
Timeless the snare
Reading the speeches of ancient
Blood on their hands

Speaking the words of long dead
Armistice made
Sing from the gallows in shame
Honour is stained

Born into life
Glory in death
Upon the gallows you swing
Timeless the end

Born into life
Glory in death
Upon the gallows you swing
A timeless lament

They fear us
The fallen fear our pride
Come fear us
The dead are destined to remind
