The Ride
Quelle: Spotify
When doors lie open at halloween
On glimmering hills and lands unseen
The oldest of all that the world gave birth
Ride again through the hills of earth
Chorus:
Out of the darkness
On the road where the dead years run
Cold as moonlight
Terrible as the sun
Long before the word was spoken
Moon scarred or promise broken
From dust before the first day's sun
The children of the twilight come
(Chorus)
When the great stones rose on the windy plain
And the corn-mother sang for the springing grain
They carved the chalk downs on the hill
The grey host rode and it's riding still
(Chorus)
When the eagles came with their wings outspread
And the hard roads rang to the legion's tread
The wall ran straight from coast to coast
Under the starlight rode the host
(Chorus)
When they came from the north with their axe and plow
And the one-eyed god hung from the bough
Nine nights between the earth and sky
He saw the host come riding by
(Chorus)
When clamoring bells and chanting priests
Proclaimed the dead god from the east
And churches rose on every hand
Still the grey host rode the land
(Chorus)
When gold was god and labor cheap
And they herded men like dogs herd sheep
Through furnace glare and smokey mill
The grey host rode and it's riding still
(Chorus)
Through tower blocks and littered streets
Where sirens wail and dossers sleep
Where hope lives god only knows
All the gods died long ago
Still the grey host rides through the dead of night
And the cities a shadow to their sight
For beyond the mist of centuries
Still shine the stars and the ancient trees
Out of the darkness
