Songs From The Lion's Cage
Let the kindred spirits go
Keep on building, stone on stone
Stands alone, stone on stone
I shall lie within this shrine....
Waiting for ten thousand years
Free from preconceived ideas
Sleeping through the age of
Darkest hour before the dawn
Clinging to a fragile rope
Desperation, preservation
Keep on building, stone one stone
Let the temple reach the clouds
Stands alone, stone on stone
Working on the grandest scale
How could worshipped idols faith
Untold wealth, hidden with care
Promised riches stored in haste
What is mine is mine you know
rights are not for you and so
Stands alone stone on stone
In this glory lies the key
Untold wealth hidden with care
Promised riches stored in haste
Sworn on the good book, hard look,
Sworn on the new faith, keepsake,
Jewels lie thick, as far as the eye
Elegant crystal, the wishful dragged through
Born from resistance, innocence
Into the darkness the blind will be thrown
Born from acceptance, vehemance
Venomous promises innocent foes
You will all hear me, all fear me
Standing in line with your faith at your feet
Do what your will has and fight back
Come meet your maker, Your saviour!
One flame lights the fire
my faith will stand up alone
Your light enriching the sacred stone
