Gallows High - Dead of the Night Lyrics

All you know is ashes beneath the snow
Still mercy weighs more than gold in the end
And all you are, an innocent child at heart
A warrior born to march when darkness descends

Now I stand alone at the crossroads
Licking my wounds, hiding my face
Pray for the raven of new hope
Guiding me home, keeping me safe
But I feel the noose pulling tighter
Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
The wolves of the winter are howling
Dead of the night, take me away

These battle lines separate our two kinds
We'll never see eye to eye in this game
But I won't hide, I'll never give up this fight
Forsake all honour and pride, deny my own name

Now I stand alone at the crossroads
Licking my wounds, hiding my face
Pray for the raven of new hope
Guiding me home, keeping me safe
But I feel the noose pulling tighter
Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
The wolves of the winter are howling
Dead of the night, take me away

Now I stand alone at the crossroads
Licking my wounds, hiding my face
Pray for the raven of new hope
Guiding me home, keeping me safe
But I feel the noose pulling tighter
Slip through the cracks, dig my own grave
The wolves of the winter are howling
Dead of the night, take me away
