Flodden Field Lyrics

a mothers heart be broken
in the morning light
a fathers son will make him proud today
many a hand be flowered
ten-thousand die tonight
as the black birds sadly fly away

lay me down
on Flodden Field they lie (lay me down)
hear no sound
as souls fly away (fly away)
I will be found
within the tears you cry
lay me down
for here I must stay

shattered sons are rising
within the tyrant sky
magic hands won't heal
you're left to reason why
deep within the silence
far beyond your eyes
torn between the pa*sions
again the widows cry
they cry

lay me down
on Flodden Field they lie (lay me down)
hear no sound
as souls fly away (fly away)
I will be found
within the tears you cry
lay me down
for here I must stay

in the darkening hours
we hear the shodows sing
in the darkening hours
we hear the shodows sing

lay me down
on Flodden Field they lie (lay me down)
hear no sound
as souls fly away (fly away)
I will be found
within the tears you cry
lay me down
for here I must stay
