The Slumber - Eluveitie

Step by step

We trudge on

On this scarlet road

Adrift and immured

Keen and uncured

Grimly walking the will of the one

One foot in front of the other one

On this steep road paved with our blood

Step by step we march a long walk

And breath by breath we just plough on

And I long to wake

Come up for air

But we stagger in slumber

Sleepwalking and lost

The long march we wander

Dreaming of the promised land

And mocked by the death knell at hand

One truth after the other one

Given and served we swallow down

Day by day we drink the blood of our sons

So they will walk this road again

But we stagger in slumber

Sleepwalking and lost

The long march we wander

Dreaming of the promised land

And mocked by the death knell at hand

Whitedreaming

One, two!

One, two!

Forlorn, march!

Linewalking

Lift your eyes

I can see the light

March on, march on

Lift your eyes

You can see it too

March on voidwards

Lift your eyes

I can see the light

March on, we march on

Lift your eyes

You can see it too

March on voidwards

And I long to wake

Come up for air

But we stagger in slumber

Sleepwalking and lost

The long march we wander

Dreaming of the promised land

But we stagger in slumber

Sleepwalking and lost

The long march we wander

Dreaming of the promised land

And mocked by the death knell at hand
