Bring 'Em Down - Fairport Convention

作词：Trevor Lucas

作曲：Trevor Lucas

Time stood dark and silent

And the stars they gave no light

I wandered in an endless dream

Haunted by the night

I saw four ghostly riders

The horses in a line

Each in turn did point at me

And say a mournful rhyme

We are the sculptors of the land

The rulers of the sea

We are the falcons of your sins

Gardeners of the trees

The air about you is burning

And the sea below does drown

And the legacy you leave your spawn

Will surely bring 'em down

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

A curse upon you men of war

With gun or pen in hand

The power sought or won

Or bought the castles made of sand

You always have good reason

To take more than you need

Your hearts are full of paper

And your minds are full of greed

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

What is deeper than the ocean

Colder than the grave

Stronger than your armies all

And braver than the brave

Those who know and knowing know

Will sow on fertile ground

Those who don't and never would are those

You will go down

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down bring 'em down

Bring 'em down

Bring 'em down
