Castles Burning lyrics
by Savatage



In the dark and bleedingWith the shadows seethingThere he stands aloneFools and faith conspireQuestions of desireThat they never ownedKings without their armorMen without their honorSpit out desecrationPieces of a nationBuried in the groundScreams without a soundBurn the castle downIn the end the children criedThat the jackal surely liedWhen he said please listen allDo not look behind these wallsCoffins drowned in rosesAnd the war he chose isFought inside the mindDeath becomes compellingWhen the soul?s for sellingAnd the world is blindIn the maze he wandersLooks about and pondersShadows mock and taunt himAnd the ghosts that haunt himChain him to the groundScreams without a soundBurn the castle downIn the end the children criedThat the jackal surely liedWhen said please listen allDo not look behind these wallsAnd does the pendulum tollAgainst the side of he soulWhen if feels the final moment is nearDo you rage against the darkTry to re-write the partTurn around and face what you fearWhat you fearHe?s seen it all beforeClose your eyes and close the doorAnd the dreams that nights embraceSlowly leave behind a trace
