Eluveitie - Alesia lyrics

The gra** was as green as it always was That sinister day The blackbird sang their songs as they always did That black-letter day The day we pa**ed the great gate for the very last time I did not look back, I knew we'd stay I knew they I would not let us go Leave the d**h strip I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement Suffering from the crushing weight Beloveth ground take me home Alesia, alisanos Wake me when I'm gone Iânotoutâ, eternity Proclaim Our barren sacrifice On that ground we cherished life Wr embraced d**h As the children's cries trailed off Sob yielded d**hly hush The gra** as green as it always was That sinister day As we walked the alleys like thousand times before I knew we'd stay Outside Alesia We offered a living sacrifice Outside the doors of Alesia Where our tears run dry
