The Dead Arise Lyrics - Singles - Rebellion

My fears in Banqou stick deep 

Haunt my sleep 

He knows the sister's prophecy 

His smiles I can read 

For his breed, I've sold my soul 

A fruitless crown can it be all 

Fate will have to bow her head 

Banquo my friend soon you'll be dead 

Murderers will do the crime 

I've paid them well to cut you fine 

I'll never have to look at you 

Banquo my friend your life is through 

I, I've walked deep in the blood 

Return I can not 

No, I'll have to carry on 

To be safe with what I've done 

The dead arise from their grave 

To assail what we thought safe 

The dead arise outta hell 

To the hero that fell 

What is this I look upon 

Should be dead and gone 

How can I believe my eyes? 

Is it a lie? 

Banquo how can it be you? 

You lie in the blood that's what you do 

I see mortal gashes on your head 

How can you smile you should be dead? 

What man dare I will dare 

A thousand warriors or the Russian bear 

But pale cheeks of immortality 

How can I fight how can I fight against thee? 

Oh no, let the earth hide you away 

In hell you should stay 

No, don't you reach for my crown 

I shall never take it down 

Shaken by the ghastly apparition 

Of the slain Banquo Macbeth fears 

Even stronger now for the security 

Of what he has stolen by murder 

And treason and defends by such means 

Like a blind stalker in the night 

He is drawn back to the lair 

Wherein the witches dwell 

Hungry for confirming answers 

To the burning doubts in his soul
