Eluveitie Bloodstained Ground Lyrics

Bloodstained Ground Lyrics

What did I close in here?

I can't remember ever shedding tears of spite

On this ground, cropping up the fatal front line



Like a soot-blackened palisade yet

Impelled, void and abulic

Legions delineate, an ominous skyline



As lifeless demons without soul

These insentient hosts abide

Engulfing war monger get away from here



Trod ye the path of vast deceit?

Every piece of evidence was a lie

The war, the threat's a hyping fake

To move figures on the board



Stain bibractes ground



What do you see in me?

Do you breathe-in dreams?

What spurred you to come here?

An oneiric picture of being



Like disaffected legions taken, lure

I wonder what lies, what threat or promise

Persuaded them to leave their home so far away

Did they really know?



As the carnyx roared aloud

I quaked not yet just asked myself

How their hearts took the bait

These sweetened words of bitter essence



Face to face with nameless foes

Scorching words, unspoken lorn

Unheard quests remain the ashes of the dead



Forsooth we'll bear the brunt

Upright in life or in death

Yet still the countless cries echo

In silenced caves of nothing
