Staff in the Sand Songtext
von The Order of Israfel

Deep in sacred forests
Silent beneath the trees
Honoring hopes as promised
Wait for the signal from me

Out of the mist and shadows
Footsteps are growing near
Shapes on the path below us
We are what they fear

I turn my face to the sun
My stake in hand
We inhale together as one
I plant my staff in the sand, ooh


Both sing a song of sorrow
They drown in a sea of spears
They shall know no tomorrow
Only silence here

In every wooded valley
Cross every grassland plain
Steel says you go no further
Arrows falling like rain

We lie unseen in the hills
Await for my command
The air here is colder than steel
I plant my staff in the sand

Tears of relief are flowing
From every eye that sees
Every single last invader
Falling into the sea


They saw our kingdom at peace
And they forced our hand
Their ships disappear in the east
I plant my staff in the sand
