Battlecry from Battlecry by Two Thieves & The Burning Wood

BATTLECRY
I was interrupted
By a sound that hit my ears
As it came in from the window
I've been lying awake
Just watching the day break
Drifting which ever way the wind blows

I was running nowhere just for the hell of it
I've been lying in the grass just so I remember the smell of it

I feel the thrill
Of a bitter chill
Creeping in the evening air
I feel the past
And know it can't last
As it carelessly carries me there

I'll go throw myself into the ocean
Just to feel the soothing sway of its motion

At a certain time of year
Darkness drawing near
Fighting a war that can't be won
Treacherous tales
On the tip of my tongue
Doing what cannot be undone

I hear your battle-cry as bells are rung
Such a bitter sweet song we sung
