The Alliance

NOTES 4 oct. 2013 LYRICS On the road of a life there comes a time, when ideas they compel you past your fear Announce the intentions of the heart, better move 'fore you pick yourself apart Cause it often fails, and the target of this praise can choose two paths But either road she takes, she walks and can't help knowing that she's loved Tell me how shall we then live? A faint heart never won fair lady Forever young, forever free, but hearts still burn and hearts still freeze If you're getting old, you're getting good at keeping your heart in line in this world A man will rise, a god will fall, but nobody gets out alive In a few hours we'll be in the promised land, announcing the girl who'll take your hand The single road that led to this, wrap it up for all and ever more True love has failed, the path she took, well you can't do anything now But you'll play this out, because we just can't break the alliance Son, we never rise, we never fall, we only keep it alive We're never proud, but never small, that's what keeps us alive If you want to feel the high, then fill your mind like ship in a bottle but you don't turn your eyes upon the sea, you'll never make it alive And yet there's bound to come a time, the sacrifice will show its grace you may look down, father prays, all his hope, down in flames What an awful hand, to be dealt a son who listens to his heart So many ways to live, so many ways to fall apart
