Lyrics Winter Born (This Sacrifice) - The Crüxshadows

Winter Born (This Sacrifice)

Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
And quietly bear this pain with pride,
For heaven shall remember the silent and the brave.
And promise me, they will never see
The fear within our eyes.
(my eyes are closed)
For we will give strength to those who still remain.
So bury fear, while fate draws near
And hide the signs of pain.
With noble acts
The bravest souls endure,
The heart’s remains.
Discard regret,
That in this debt
A better world is made
And children of a newer day might remember
And avoid our fate.
I waited all day in the pouring rain,
But nobody came,
No nobody came.
(Prepare for battle)
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be your light
You’ve asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith is come
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
Hold your head up high
For there is no greater love
Think of the faces of the people you defend
And promise me, they will never see
The tears within our eyes (My eyes are closed)
Although we are men with mortal sins,
Angels never cry
So bury fear for fate draws near
And hide the signs of pain
With noble acts, the bravest souls
Endure the heart’s remains
Discard regret,
That in this debt
A better world is made
That children of a newer day might remember, and avoid our fate.
(Prepare for battle)
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be your light
You’ve asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith in God
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
And in the fury of this darkest hour
I will be your light
A lifetime for this destiny
For I am winter born
And in this moment…
I will not run, it is my place to stand
We few shall carry hope
Within our bloodied hands
And in our Dying
We’re more alive- than we have ever been
I’ve lived for these few seconds
For I am Winter born
And in the fury of this darkest hour
We will be the light
You’ve asked me for my sacrifice
And I am Winter born
Without denying, a faith in man
That I have never known
I hear the angels call my name
And I am Winter born
Within this moment
I am for you,
Though better men have failed
I will give my life for love
For I am Winter born
