Lyrics
?Country of the Blind?
Capers Simmons
VERSE I
Watchman, what of the night? What do you see?
Fires in the fading light and panic in the streets,
Blood moon hanging low in the sky
PRECHORUS I
Pale horse on the ride
Death and Hades go behind
CHORUS I
Who will watch the watchmen? Who will save the saviors?
Who will lead the one-eyed-men in the Country of the Blind?
Who dies for the martyrs, guards the guardian angels,
Resurrects the heroes when all the heroes die?
In the Country of the Blind?
VERSE II
You can?t trust your own eyes; darkness may be light
While the sentinels stand on trial, who will guard the night?
No one?s watching the skies
PRECHORUS II
The sentinels lose their lives
And close their lonely eyes
~ CHORUS I ~
BRIDGE
The angry angels fallen from our grace
Now who will intercede?
They tried to save a world that never wanted to be saved.
Nothing left now, but to bleed.
~ VERSE I ~ PRECHORUS I ~
CHORUS II
Who prays for the prophets, fights to free the fighters,
Hopes to help the heroes when heroes run and hide?
Who?s haunting all these ghosts, hunting all these hunters?
Who will save the world?and the Country of the Blind?
