The Slumber

Step by step
We trudge on
On this scarlet road
Adrift and immured
Keen and uncured
Grimly walking the will of the one
One foot in front of the other one
On this steep road paved with our blood
Step by step we march a long walk
And breath by breath we just plough on
And I long to wake
Come up for air
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand
One truth after the other one
Given and served we swallow down
Day by day we drink the blood of our sons
So they will walk this road again
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand
Whitedreaming
One, two, one, two, Forlorn, march
Linewalking
Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards
Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, we march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards
And I long to wake
Come up for air
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand
