Lyrics Revolutionary Spirit - The Wild Swans

Revolutionary Spirit

Lost in the delta of Venus, lost in a welter of shame
Deep in the forest of evil we embark on the new crusade
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
And there where hope is dust so strange and absolute
Nestling in sweet sorrow is the saviour of our youth
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my heir-apparent the revolutionary spirit is here
Sons defy their fathers;
lose their way deep in the mist
Their hearts like alabaster crack and crumble when they kiss
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
All is quiet where angels fear
Oh my heir-apparent the revolutionary spirit is here
Courage my sad companion mute in silence you’ll find no relief
Faith is the counter-poison
The power compels you to flee from grief
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
And there where hope is dust so strange and absolute
Nestling in sweet sorrow is the saviour of our youth
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
