Rome Eagle and Serpent song lyrics

The world won't ever let me rest

In angry blackness

Ever understand my misfortunes, and yet

Like the signal from a bell, alone and distant

You make everything your own in an instant

As you carry your own weight upend alone

And prepare in time an asylum for mankind

And we will have every spark

Burn out like Joan of Arc

And with prison, poison, rope and knife

Keep you from blazing to life

So you carry a warmer light

Clothe yourselves in your flags and color of night

Even though your flowers wither my eyes

And your letters are lost in the signs

We hold on, we hold still

we hold fast

As eagle, as serpent

I know we could have every spark

Light up like Joan of Arc

Despite prison, poison, rope and knife

Have you blaze into life

I know we could have every spark

Light up like Joan of Arc

Despite prison, poison, rope and knife

Have you blaze into life
