farewell all you people
you moses of light
farewell you scare mongers
who hunger to fight
farewell non-believers on your road of flight
And leave me to sweet slumbers
and the roses of night
I've been where you're standing
and seen what you see
And it's not for one moment
that I'd swap places with thee
It's all just a grossness of blatant hypocrisy
So go where you're going and leave what's mine to me
Farewell the soothsayers
False prophets of light
When the true dawn breaks
Then it will overcome the night
And if what you're knowing
to you seems right
Well those are just dead seeds you're sowing
Which will never reach the light
Good night to your lands
And your lanterns of peace
Bring out the war bands
Let their fighting never cease
For the foreign lands engulf in flames that increase
With each profit margin bearing the mark of the beast
I hope to see this land
Once recover its soul
And it will do in our hands
When we make steel and coal
And once again can raise a flag
of our sovereign self-control
To determine our course as it stands
Beyond the turbid rigmarole
