Once Upon A Time

[Verse 1]
High we climbed to set our sun
Ignore the deeds that are done
Bloody knives beneath the moon
Now dark skies and broken runes

[Chorus]
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century

[Verse 2]
Frozen sepia in bloody frames
Show uniforms and their reign
Sea and sky remain the same
Unmoved by claims to fame

[Chorus]
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century

[Verse 3]
From the quiet of yesterday
They observe the state of play
From the quiet of yesterday
They watch and wave

[Chorus]
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
Once upon a time in this sad century
