Defyance - Passing Of The Night Lyrics

An eagle down
They clipped his wings
Could not evade
Never did I think that I would fall

In all that time
I never thought
To face this fate
At least I had the chance to say goodbye

As they shackled my hands
And blindfold me on
Spit on me and call me names unknown

All that I want
Is to make it home some day
To return with honor when the night is gone


Passing of the night
On the horizon
Soaring on my flight
Passing of the night
The sun is rising
Soaring on my flight
My soul now rising

The days that go
The years that come
Yet I live on
I hope I have the strength to see it through

They tear my flesh and crush my bones
To starve my heart
The rampant music rips my mind in two

This 3 by 6 foot cell
I'm down on my knees
I lift my voice in prayer up to my god

Hearken unto me
Cast me not away
Send your angels, lord
To set me free

Passing of the night
On the horizon
Soaring on my flight
Passing of the night
The sun is rising
Soaring on my flight
My soul now rising

(Chorus)
