in hoc signo vinces

you had a dream and had to watch it die
no one would speak as all the good folk fell
there is no safety left beneath this sky

you saw the anger blazing in his eye
and listened to the hostile shout and yell
you had a dream and had to watch it die

nothing was said you had no time to cry
nobody thought even to toll a bell
there is no safety left beneath this sky

the times are sour and the season's dry
no word is left for anyone to tell
you had a dream and had to watch it die

we have no thought to interfere or pry
no hope is left that we might have to quell
there is no safety left beneath this sky

you enter now the kingdom of the lie
the place appointed for your living hell
you had a dream and had to watch it die
there is no safety left beneath this sky
