When war came so close The rivers of the cities rose With the colour shifting to crimson And the spirits of deceased had arisen Their revengeful agonising groans Sent deep shivers through your bones When war comes so near And the love we hold dear Scatters away into nothing Leaving the people still clutching The last shred of peace As the joy and laughter ceases When war will approach nearby And the loss of a lovers sighs Will become so apparent And the longing to not feel transparent Takes over the soul As the loss takes a great toll

When war came so close
When war came so close The rivers of the cities rose With the colour shifting to crimson And the spirits of deceased had arisen Their revengeful agonising groans Sent deep shivers through your bones When war comes so near And the love we hold dear Scatters away into nothing Leaving the people still clutching The last shred of peace As the joy and laughter ceases When war will approach nearby And the loss of a lovers sighs Will become so apparent And the longing to not feel transparent Takes over the soul As the loss takes a great toll
