Ellie

The time has come to lead the charge\nAnd I don’t want to pray.\nOur dreams that once were full of life\nNow lie here in the fray.\nIt’s all for king and country, yes.\nI know just who I am.\nMy heart lies in the valley,\nMy soul rides with the damned.\nHow will they remember me?\nEllie can you tell?\nThe one who swore the traitors' oath,\nThe poet mad as Hell.\nAnd will they fly the Hero’s Flag?\nOr know just where I fall?\nEllie, don’t you wonder what’s this about at all?\nAnd all I want is to feel your breath\nSo warm against my skin\nYour lips so close\nThat I can’t breathe\nOr take this madness in.\nEllie, when I close my eyes,\nYou’re in my every night.\nKnowing that I love you\nSomehow makes it worth the fight.\nAnd little did they know that day\nI cried the mourner’s tears\nYou held me in your ghostly arms\nAnd took away my fears\nEllie, can you hear in now\nThe blackbird’s last refrain.\nHush, I think it’s calling us Back to the hills of Slane.
