Marching Song - Esben and the Witch
Written by:Daniel Copeman/Rachel Davies/Thomas Fisher
In a wilderness of foggy thoughts
Battling with your minds retorts
And walking
On empty plains
Where desert's so calm
Even drowning rains
Soldier on to this
Marching song
Head held high
With eyes fixed strong
Drum beat died
Cymbal crash down
The mud it is thick with desires to drown
Your feet's in earth
Your boots are sinking
Sink with the memories of long lost thinking
And armies
Of many
Are fighting their fights
Lost in the blackness
They're losing their sights
Your veins are my trenches
My gun is my own
The whispers fall heavy with
Delicate moans
Arms and legs
Teeth and nail
Our fragile companions
Are destined to fail
For this battalion
Has been run through
Therefore captains and comrades
I bid you
All adieu
