Dogs Of War

Without protection
I've come to watch you sleep
I see how you struggle
I sense that you're fighting me.

It touches me deeply
to watch you suffer - still
to know you so helpless
in my old hands I let you sleep.

I could never hurt you
I value the trust in me
I'm scared and feel stranded
Alone in the tides of life.

I beg you please
Please don't wake up now
I beg you please
Please don't give up now.

Don't take the blame for me
Let's talk it over
Don't bear the shame with me
I have a sacrifice to make.

Call back all my demons
You carried the cross for me
Let go of my burden
I think i can bear the pain.

Sing with me, stranger
Get lost in your darkest dream
Your pain is my symphony
I dance with your dogs of war.
