Pain Of Salvation

[music: daniel gildenlæw/daniel magdic]
[lyrics: daniel gildenlæw]
Once there was a world out on these fields, that was untouched.
Grateful for its love we thanked the earth that gave so much.
And oh, I loved it so!
Once there was a pair of eyes, unbroken just like my heart.
Belonging to a father and his son, now torn apart.
And oh, I loved him so!
"Why, mommy? Tell me why daddy is walking away - leaving me!"
I remember birds of pray, dark shadows piercing the ground!
Faceless men came shouting about a pride to which we were bound.
And oh, I searched for him so!
"Faith darling, have faith my son! Your daddy is winning a war..."
"...for you!"
Daddy need me, love and lead me.
Your superseding war won't feed me!
