Time stood dark and silent and the stars they gave no light I wandered in an endless dream, haunted by the night I saw four ghostly riders, the horses in a line Each in turn did point at me and say a mournful rhyme
We are the sculptors of the land, the rulers of the sea We are the falcons of your sins, gardeners of the trees The air about you is burning and the sea below does drown And the legacy you leave your spawn will surely bring 'em down
Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down
A curse upon you men of war, with gun or pen in hand The power sought or won or bought, the castles made of sand You always have good reason to take more than you need Your hearts are full of hatred and your minds are full of greed
Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down
What is deeper than the ocean, colder than the grave And stronger than your armies all and braver than the brave? Those who know and all they know will sow on fertile ground Those who don't and never will are those who will go down
Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down Bring 'em down, bring 'em down, bring 'em down
