lyrics

CHANGING OF THE GUARD

Is this the time? The changing of the guard
As the cygnet flies far beyond its home
To where the eagle cries and the spirits roam
Naked through the skies, driven from their home

It is a time of signs, a fated hour awaits
As destiny unwinds we hurtle on to face
A seething wind of time that kisses us and burns
With arms raised to the skies – a joyous love that yearns

A clear note is sung
By the moon and the stars and the sun
The land cries its eternal call
For those who will fight and stand tall

The secrets shining in the dawn are seeking those who ask
The wind that gallops at our back begs of us a task
As we arise to meet our fate, called by ancient sound
We can use the fire to keep us warm or burn the world right down
Right down…
Right down…
