Verse

1st):

 Do you feel the thorns?

 Do you see the tears?

 Do you see the bloodshed in this fell war?

 Have you forsaken us?

 Have you forgotten our

 Faithful men calling your name?

Verse

 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?

Chorus

 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

Verse

 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?

Chorus

 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

Interlude

 Epo, Epo, why has 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?

Chorus

 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...
