The Fall - Lene Lovich

Rumours arrived as they sat at the feast

Of the army that comes from the east

Burning each village and town

The temple bell sounds the alarm

Invasion x 3

Look out it?

s happening right now

Knock on the door in the night now

Fires on the hillside surrounding the town

Fires and night coming down like a blanket

And fear at the gate

And there¹s nothing to do, but wait

Danger x 3

Look out it?

s happening right now

Knock on the door in the night now

Blood on the paving stones, blood on the walls

As the city of wisdom falls

Conquering squadrons march in

With banners the colour of sin

Darkness x 3

Look out it?

s happening right now

Knock on the door in the night now

Some old men grab all the books that are in sight

Then escape into the night

Carrying their truth far away

You can see them still running today

Freedom x 3

Look out it¹s happening right now

Knock on the door in the night now
