hounds of heaven

hounds of heaven 
are hunting me down
haunting my dreams
won’t leave me alone

floating on surface
dark demons in tow
mighty Rhine sleeps
dreaming life lows

speak in tied tongues
bells ring in valleys
no songs of freedom
bring freedom to me

hounds of heaven
they can still wait
it’s early morning
spring light is late

speak in tied tongues
bells ring in valleys
no songs of freedom
bring freedom to me

horizon is clear
i’m ready for war
i’m ready for war
