The battle of Sandstone (Here it´s all, or nothing!)
The clouds are heavy
It's pouring down
You can hear the silence
A blood red sky
Day of reckoning
The night is moving in
Hear them bells ringing
The choir ain't singing
The darkness is tearing the town
These worn out souls
Are torn apart
They're wrecked at heart
See the winds of fire
The devil is a liar
Causing their pain
Turn them things around
Before the church bell makes a sound
They heading our way
The fear is growing
Do you go and
Stay low?
They're crossing the river
Will we see the stars
Fall tonight?
The howling wind
A gun sounds
In the dark
They'll have their fight
Their final fight
Coming at their door
In the line of fire
You see the devils wicked desire
To take our life away
Brimstone, blood and fire
We gotta raise the stakes higher
Or face our judgement day
Silence and rain
Fear drifting out
Pouring rain
We have our peace
Before our final bell tolls
We live
It's pouring down
You can hear the silence
A blood red sky
Day of reckoning
The night is moving in
Hear them bells ringing
The choir ain't singing
The darkness is tearing the town
These worn out souls
Are torn apart
They're wrecked at heart
See the winds of fire
The devil is a liar
Causing their pain
Turn them things around
Before the church bell makes a sound
They heading our way
The fear is growing
Do you go and
Stay low?
They're crossing the river
Will we see the stars
Fall tonight?
The howling wind
A gun sounds
In the dark
They'll have their fight
Their final fight
Coming at their door
In the line of fire
You see the devils wicked desire
To take our life away
Brimstone, blood and fire
We gotta raise the stakes higher
Or face our judgement day
Silence and rain
Fear drifting out
Pouring rain
We have our peace
Before our final bell tolls
We live
