The braver that they are the harder they fall
But they don’t always fall
Some return alone without a curtain call
So little left, some never left at all
Never having seen such cruelty
What remnants of a heart could remain?
Rattled by the inhumanity
Sometimes the lucky are the slain
'Cause you’re a soldier now
Did what they told you
Now the only enemies are inside
The braver that they are the harder they fall
But they don’t always fall
Chewed up, spit out having answered the call
So little left, some never left at all
When all seems a loss
When all turn away
When all pass you by
Know some remember you
Buried ‘neath the broken sanity
Enveloped in the constant toil
Swallowed by the gross calamity
Could anything remain unspoiled?
We'll never know the count or casualty
The veterans of a quiet war
Where everything, magnified,
Every sound, amplified
The screams you can't ignore
'Cause you’re a soldier still
And there’s no switch to kill
Only the broken will to live
The braver that they are the harder they fall
But they don’t always fall
Chewed up, spit out having answered the call
So little left, some never left at all
When all seems a loss
When all turn away
When all pass you by
Know some remember you
Know some remember you
Know some still honor you
What an album! The only reason the album didn't elevate them straight to stardom is not enough people heard it. Modern classic - from start to finish. c1ch
Allow me to copy Pagan Altar's third album title to describe not only III:Pentecost but the whole discography of Wytch Hazel so far: well, yes, it's Magical and Mythical!!! A must-have for the lovers of 70's hard sound revival. BoneWalker
