The Marriage Of Steel And Skin Lyrics - Children Of Fire - Oh, Sleeper

Man, the one we followed has fallen to our foe 

But, oh man, you can't just shed your soul and let ruin all your thirsting tongues 

Your tolls grow tallies but there's no judge to pay the debts 

Our judge is dead but one must reside to bring down judgment 

This is my call from the kingdom 

And I will stand 

yes I will stand 

I'll stand for the fires of the victims 

left to die 

left to die 

and I'll stay until their cowards on a pyre 

burned alive 

burning alive 

I'll stand for the fires of the victims 

left to die 

left to die 

and I'll stay until their cowards on a pyre 

burned alive 

burning alive 

Daughter! Sweet daughter 

What has brought this bed of blood? 

What man? What man has entered my home? 

He's wreathed your body in sin 

He must pay! 

Now take my hand and show me the den where he lays 

I'll marry a blade to his throat 

I'll marry a blade to his throat 

There's going to be blood for the blood that you spill 

Blood for the blood of your forced will 

we will stand by the fires of the victims 

left to die 

left to die 

and we'll stay until their cowards on a pyre 

burned alive 

burning alive 

We stand for the fires of the victims 

left to die 

left to die 

and we'll stay until their cowards on a pyre 

burned alive 

burning alive 

Now cut 

cut until the head comes off 

until the head comes off
