The Aftermath - Wolves At The Gate

Oh how I cried aloud

Though no one heard a sound

How I was locked and chained

But none could see me bound

For I spoke of peace

But I dreamt of war

Secrets have a voice

Screaming without breath

My heart speaks of its choice

Calling for my death

Mountains take flight, rain down from above

Shadows and night aren’t dark enough

Rocks and hills, cover me!

Rocks and hills, hide me from Your face!

Rocks and hills, hide me!

I claimed to be rich

Truly, I was poor

Secrets have a voice

Screaming without breath

My heart speaks of its choice

Calling for my death

Choosing my own path

Shrouded treachery

Ignore the aftermath, living carelessly

Tempting you to wrath with infidelity

So where’s the fire?

Where’s the flood?

These guilty hands are covered in blood

Shouldn’t I die when Your laws I deny?

Earth heeds not my cries

Mercy come or I die

You speak with Your own voice

«Come be not afraid

Weep no more rejoice

Punishment is paid?»

I feared the One who bears all sin

Will You take me in Father?

Cover me with Your blood!

Cover me with Your blood!

Cover me!
