Age of Monsters

Go to sleep my precious little baby

Close your eyes and dream of the day

Your mother and father will keep you from vampires

But arrows of fire might put you in your grave

Tents will burn like a match in a fireplace

Take no revenge but with kindness and love

Lest you become the monster that hates you

As it hates itself for what it has done

Do we just carry on in this Age Of Monsters

Unhear what we’ve heard in this Age Of Monsters

Unsee what we’ve seen in this Age Of Monsters

The worlds great sorrows were born in the shadows

In the boyhood of Judas, Christ was betrayed

They ordered their legions

This world for its plaything

Now wanderers are doomed just

As we are betrayed

Masters of war make profit for brutality

Gold for them means one less of us

Although we are fewer than when we started

We dream of peace and a time of the just

Do we just carry on in this Age Of Monsters

Unhear what we’ve heard in this Age Of Monsters

Unsee what we’ve seen in this Age Of Monsters
