A Rose for Epona lyrics

Do you feel the thorns?

Do you see the tears?

Do you see the blood shed in this fell war?

Have you forsaken us?

Have you forgotten our faithful men calling your name?

While I stand before you

While we perish

While I lay down a crimson rose

While holding hands

Are forced apart

While hopes bog like condemned men

Were you there?

The sky is falling on me

As your hand's turning old and weak

I'm giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere

In your nemeton

These grey stone walls

Are cold and silent

As the fallen

Mother gone deaf

Mistress of shattered hopes

And forever broken dreams

Were you there?

The sky is falling on me

As your hand's turning old and weak

I'm giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere

Epo, epo why hast thou forsaken me?

Together we go unsung

Into thy hand I commend my spirit

Together we go down with our people

Were you there? were you there?

The sky is falling on me

As your hand's turning old and weak

I'm giving myself up to thee

A futile sacrifice gone sere

Falling on me...
