Fear in the eyes of the white dove Wings clipped by the will to power Cowers in it's nest it watches (furtively) Too scared to take flight Forced to face futurity Fury like fire on a desolate altar Extinguish hope extinguish life Hope stillborn astride a dark horse Face to face with oblivion Gathering (the eagles) Those beyond fear This bloodied dove confronts a world in denial Hope and appeasement invite death Words of comfort tranquilize As blood red contrails streak the skies The dove cries a last accord to the darkness Eyes of hellfire sear the answer and intent Freedoms ring fades as thunder rolls above Hellish winds scatter embers and ash The gasping dove now prays the eagles come A holy alliance and it's holy work Fury like fire on a desolate altar Hope and appeasement have brought death Call down the thunder on jet-black wings From the sun they descend battle dressed Merciless beauty dripping red in claw Ecstasy to seesee the conquered fall
