The Death March

歌詞

In the cold of winter's fall They planned to captivate us all They would work us 'til our bones Were broken and our souls followed I met a man who saved my life 'Til this day I don't know why He would smuggle gifts sent for me That would buy my life some time Walking there were thousands of us Nothing like you've seen before With the ice beneath us, feet were frozen And our clothes were torn But it would be a cold day in hell before I fall In their dark and sunken eyes Hope and humanity had died All the feeling and emotion in them had been cauterized You gave me something to believe in when the end was not in sight As I drifted into darkness you provided me with light Maybe I'll let the heavens take me And save me from this life Or is that giving up too easy I cannot let them win the fight Another life awaiting me I see the finish line Nothing can stop me from living The Death March claims me no more They're turning ordinary people into lifeless ghostly shadows And I was powerless to stop them Spreading death amongst us all Still I can dream of a place far from here Where we eat and we sleep never living in fear
