The Northern Fields
|
(Part One: Wake Up)
|
By Frank Peter Hermsen
|
|
The trees that we had planted
|
|
Off the beaten track
|
|
Have been felled years ago
|
|
But we¢„ll always get back
|
|
There¢„ll be traps on our way
|
|
But I do have eyes in my head
|
|
If we¢„re not allowed to walk
|
|
We¢„ve got to learn to creep instead
|
|
No more begging for alms
|
|
Being addicted to dreams
|
|
No more rousing from fear
|
|
In between nightmare screams
|
|
Wake up
|
|
It¢„s time to set out
|
|
To cry for revenge
|
|
To fight against our doubts
|
|
Noone
|
|
Can soothe our wrath
|
|
We¢„ve renounced our faith
|
|
On this vengeance path
|
|
Some last farewells
|
|
To our absent friends
|
|
Who died on their knees
|
|
In this northern land
|
|
The time has come
|
|
For our judgement day
|
|
In a wellknown land
|
|
Where we couldn¢„t stay
|
|
