lyrics

They came by land and sea
The ancient enemy
Upon their mighty steeds
They began to lay the siege

Behind these castle walls
Our pride will never fall
This house stands ever tall
Our spirit weathers all

They started with the food
Starvation killed the mood
With the water running dry
No tears were left to cry

Beyond the moated walls
The riders sitting tall
With more than enough to feed
Their growing armies

They lasted
Two whole years
Breathing
Air soaked in fear

The walls that had once
Kept them safe
Now threatened
To choke them to their graves

Over the hill
Time stood still
Help had arrived
And hope was revived

Their army descended on the legions
“Did you even know who you were sieging?”
Hitting harder than the changing of the seasons
“Just try me I been waitin’ for a reason!”

Saved
By the bell
Our allies gave them hell
Just a few more days
These walls would’ve surely fell

We owe our lives to the other side
Without them our hope would’ve surely died

But as our noble saviours came on over the moat
They jumped upon our king and put a knife to his throat!

This is the bands last release and boy did they deliver.Someone used the word stunning to describe the music.Hard at times yet that cello what a beautiful instrument. It can make the hardest song soft.As always an honour to support fellow Canadians, thank you for making this world a better place for a little while as when listening i leave this shit hole world behind for a short while. lloydd
