and sing the poems, free the butterflies
[Chorus]
G D
Pray your gods who ask you for your blood
Bm F#m A
For they are strong and angry jealous ones
G A D A G
Or lay upon my altar now your love
G
I fear my time is short
Em F#m
There are armies moving close
G
Be quick, my love
[Verse]
N.C.
I feel my body weakened by the years
N.C
As people turn to gods of cruel design
N.C
Is it that they fear the pain of death
N.C
Or could it be they fear the joy of life?
[Chorus]
G D
Pray your gods who rule you by your fears
Bm F#m A
For they are quick and ruthless punishers
G A D A G
Or lay upon my altar now your love
G
I fear my day is done
Em F#m
There are armies moving on
G
Be quick, my love
