The Fall
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
