Chime the Night

Chime the day, chime the night
Those that hide, those that fight
Shroud the day and light the night
Praise the wrong and curse the right
Fields of green, fields of dust
Swords of steel turn to rust
Those betrayed are those that trust
What to do? What we must
Hear the lies of a cold state
Breed us all as carrion made
Move the figures on the board
See the puppets, see the cord
Is there hope? I see none
The race that’s lost cannot be won
Ride the tiger, it bares its teeth
Pick the flower and lay the wreath
Chime the day, chime the night
Chime the day, chime the night
Chime the day, chime the night
Chime the day, chime the night
