Home
Eluveitie - Helvetios
In these vigilant times I daydream - an innocuous crime
My motionless stance - in my mind
A bleak and dismal trance
and now I can see my town is painted red
here forever I'll be where once my tears were shed
in our place I recall the smell of the rain
and I'd protect you from them if you want me to take
you sleep from here or above
Words like these won't leave this place
The home they want call their own
But for the air that I breathe
the memories I'll bring to
The home they want to call province of Rome
I'm trapped without guards
within a state I can't grasp
I am waiting for the clouds to part
does it know we're scared
scared just to be who we were
What matters is just you and me and the path that leads us…
But I won't let you fall into deep forlornness
I won't let you ponder the why in distress
A mechanical smile as I lift my face towards the sun
I weep as I kiss the ground
the trees that I'll soon miss
The songs we sang will ring out
the memories will resound
