Watch the children pray (Metal Church)

Los dos primeros discos de Metal Church siempre me los han puesto de corbata. De obligada escucha y estudio para cualquier metalero que se precie. Y este es uno de mis temas favoritos de la banda, un tema que va increscendo hasta explotar del todo. Recuerdo un concierto de ellos en Wacken, hace ya muchos años, y la descarga fue brutal. Una de las bandas míticas, a disfrutar.

In a darkened graveyard glows a light.

I see it shine there every night.

I know somewhere there's a hidden door.

There's an answer here we must explore.

No, I'll not submit to reason.

I'll sit and watch the seasons change.

We watch the children pray.

Save us God today,

Come whatever may.

We hold our fate and make the choice,

But we'll not listen to that still small voice.

Are we just crazy, out of our minds?

Wish this were someplace, another time.

We watch the children pray.

Save us God today,

Come whatever may.

And I know we're going

So far away from this wretched life we lead.

With open arms meet catastrophe,

In the valley of the damned we'll be.

And I know we're going

So far away from this wretched life we lead.

With open arms meet catastrophe,

In the valley of the damned we'll be.

We watch the children pray.

Save us God today,

Come whatever may.

And now to life we say goodbye.

I know the when but not the why.

Our nation's blood spills on the ground.

Our lives go out without a sound.
