Eluveitie - Alesia Lyrics

The gress as green as it always was that sinister day
blackbird sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day
the day we passed the great gate for the very last time
I did not look back, I knew we`d stay

I knew they I would not let us go leave the death strip
I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement
suffering from the crushing weight

I knelt ground take me home

Alesia, alisanos
wake me when I`m gone
IANOTOUTA,eternity
proclaim our barren sacrifice

on that ground we cherished life
we embraced death
as the children`s cries trailed off
sob yielded deathly hush

the grass as green as it always was that sinister day
as we walked the alleys like thousand times before
I knew we`d stay

oudside Alesia
we offered a living sacrifice

outside the doors of Alesia
where our tears run dry
