The fields once whispered of golden grain
Plowshare carved
But the marks remain
A stag in the bramble
Its antlers caught
Echoes of wars the seasons forgot
Rust on the blade
But the hand won't rest


Oh
The soil bears no flag
Yet it bleeds
It drags


The Lord's forgotten fields
Where the earth refuses yields
Stone walls crumble
Time concealed
The Lord's forgotten fields


The blackbird calls where the banners flew
Crows pick the scraps of the old and new
A kingdom's promise
A fleeting breeze
Bound by the roots of the ancient trees
Dirt-stained palms held nothing but dust


The Lord's forgotten fields
Where the earth refuses yields
Stone walls crumble
Time concealed
The Lord's forgotten fields


Oh
The harpsichord hums where no dancers tread
Steps of the past
Long buried
Long dead
A squire's laugh
A widow's plea
Lost to the land
Like foam to the sea
