lyrics

As the smoke veils and whispers,
your world starts to blister at your door
Hell’s Encore,
The Gallant the strong aren’t where they belong,
they’re enslaved
by fires they braved,
For when Hell is done with all of our heroes,
send them back to me
When Angels sing with stolen breath,
send them back to me.

Return the life defenders,
put flesh back on the bones,
I’d laugh in the face of danger,
but it’s no joke on your own
Through Hell and high slaughter,
through Stations of the Cross,
I won’t prey to an absent saviour,
when it’s my life to be lost,
that’s the final cost.

Into the fire the angels muted by the storm,
unwritten stories never told.
The pages burnt before their words were ever formed,
don’t tell them there’s no saving hand to hold.

When Hell is done with all of our heroes,
send them back to me.
When Angels sing with stolen breath,
send them back to me.

Visions of the fearless,
are all I need to see,
But charred steel skeletal pyres,
are the only view for me.
Evil is as Evil does,
can’t suffocate the flame,
You move, you try, to hide inside,
seeking shelter from the pain,
but it’s all in vein.

Into the fire the Angels muted by the storm,
unwritten stories never told,
The pages burnt before their words were ever formed,
don’t tell them there’s no saving hand to hold.

For when Hell is done with all of our heroes,
send them back to me,
When Angels sing with stolen breath,
send them back to me X2

Walk through the embers,
back to those who need.
Scream through the ashes,
return now we plead.

For when Hell is done with all of our heroes,
send them back to me,
When Angels sing with stolen breath,
send them back to me.
I cry for the angels and the stories,
histories never to be told.
When all is said and done my friends,
return yourselves to me.
