Eluveitie - Alesia

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

I knew they 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
Alesia, alisanos
Wake me when I`m gone
Ianotouta, eternity
Proclaim our barren sacrifice

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

Alesia, alisanos
Wake me when I`m gone
Ianotouta, eternity
Proclaim our barren sacrifice

Oudside Alesia
We offered a living sacrifice

Outside the doors of Alesia
Where our tears run dry
