Song #73 - Tears of an Eagle Written by David Newton (Wong) Completed on 17/7/2005 Length: 10min 59sec davidknewton_gmail.com http://wired.st-and.ac.uk/~wong/modsite/ --- This song is based on a rather vivid dream that I had. I'm not sure if the dream actually meant anything, but you can interpret it for yourself. It's about an attack on a perfect world. I'm experimenting with a new style involving a different, higher guitar instrument along with a harpsichord sample in the background. Most of its role is playing broken chords to back up the instrumental sections, but I think it definitely brings a new sound to my music. --- Look up to the fortress that stands on the hill Walls of gold surrounding the core On the tower the statue, an eagle, stands tall The symbol of freedom and justice for all Its eyes watching over utopian land The only defence from hostile hands We walk up the path to the blank golden walls The city lies in sleep A robed figure watches, he sees what's to come And turning away, begins to weep And as we approach the city of gold Lightning flashes from on high We shield our eyes from the blinding light As the wind howls from the sky For a moment there's darkness, the city awakes With a sudden piercing cry And as we watch the fortress splits apart Torn by fire from the sky On the edge of the light we see them As from the earth they rise Their metal skin reflects the light And shows their lifeless eyes As one by one they take their place They form a perfect ring A wall of metal creatures that Begins to close us in The beings march towards the light With no remorse or feel And in their wake they leave the ground Cold and hard as steel The hero who could never cry The leader of us all Once proud, the life gone from his eyes His crown replaced by thorns The tears of an eagle Fallen from the sky A future that we never had The lives we had will die The glow fades from the fragments Scattered all around The statue of the eagle Lies shattered on the ground Oppressors take the people And they mark them with their seal Their flesh turned in to silicon Their skin to lifeless steel Aged, greyed and broken His bravery torn down The future of this world lost The thorns replace his crown Our guardian lies sleeping The fallen fortress torn The pride that we had in us is gone Join us now in victory of metal All shall hail the tyranny of steel Join us now in victory of metal All shall hail the tyranny of steel Join us now and become one of us Leave your life behind With the tears of an eagle, guardian of light We saw the mighty fall from the sky And yield to the night Tears of an eagle, guardian of light We saw the mighty fall from the sky Give in to the night I was the eagle, wings torn away Only able to watch as my people were taken away Helpless, defenceless, it seemed like the end But some day I wish to fly again The hero who could never cry The leader of us all Once proud, the life gone from his eyes His crown replaced by thorns The tears of an eagle Fallen from the sky The pride of all our world is gone I saw him, he was Aged, greyed and broken His bravery torn down The future of this world lost The thorns replace his crown And many people stand by us The faces that we've seen Each one of them now marked to be A part of the machine I was watching them all leave me They thought that I had died Alone and in the darkness now But I am still alive And leaving back on the ground The tears that I've cried I'll rise to soar high once again The eagle will fly
