The Raven Age - "Grave of the Fireflies" (lyric video)

Quiet the drone in the distance approaches we hide and hope they pass us by
Waiting in silence praying they don’t find us and maybe they’ll spare us our lives
Just maybe they’ll spare us our lives
Desolate village of sorrow and anguish I stare upon what once was home
Explosions and flashes leave embers and ashes and now I’ve got nowhere to go
And now we’ve got nowhere to go

Now as the fire reigns down from the sky I see the love disappear from her eyes
I’ve seen the hearts of our people all change like the wind a helping hand I cannot find

Hold on I’ll find a place to call our home nevermore will you cry together we’ll live on alone

Life or death we will not live forever or did you forget
Selflessness bereft you look the other way as we are left for dead
v Gone are the days of the innocent child each day a curse watching her fading smile
You must be brave little sister I’ll swallow my pride whatever it takes to survive
Be strong the fireflies will light way never stop carry on you are the life in me today

Life or death we will not live forever or did you forget
Selflessness bereft you look the other way as we are left for dead
As the raid begins the blackened rain turns red a beautiful display of hatred
Nothing left beneath the flames are where my loved ones lay to rest

Sleep little one all your nightmares are gone rest in peace and be free of your pain
For you I will fight one more day
Echoes of your voice repeatedly tormenting reminds me of my mistakes
How do I live with myself my conscience says I sent you to an early grave
Have I sent you to an early grave

Mother and father will dry your eyes now that you sleep with the fireflies

Οι The Raven Age μας έρχονται από το Λονδίνο. Δημιουργήθηκαν πρν από ένδεκα έτη κι έχουν κυκλοφορήσει δύο "ολοκληρωμένους" δύο "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους ένα ep και τέσσερα singles. Πιο πρόσφατο δισκογραφικό τους πόνημα είναι το full length album "Conspiracy" που "βγήκε" (αυτοχρηματοδοτούμενο) πέρυσι.

Οι Raven Age θεωρούνται ως μία από τις μεγαλύτερες (μουσικές - "μεταλλικές") ελπίδες στην χώρα τους καθώς πρόπερσι είχαν κατακτήσει το βραβείο της καλύτερης νεοεμφανιζόμενης μπάντας (Best New Band) στα Planet Rock Awards 2017...
