Sylvan - Deliverance lyrics

Many times you remember freedom Happy days without fear and torment Seven years on this ship of demons, human beasts, men indeed - that's hard to believe Catching and imprisoning you Abusing and degrading you No farewell, no goodbye Pa**ing days, pa**ing life Day by day you're rowing through the endless sea And faces all around you staring hopeless at the ground Day by day your masters heading for a new course And every day you're wishing your slavery comes to an end Seven years full of pain and torture Heavy chains ‘round your arms to hold you Damn the day they'd arrived in your port Searched men to turn them into slaves Strokes of grief and misery I can't believe – what I see Nights of cries, hope to die Bloody streams Don't let you dream Day by day you're rowing through the endless sea And battle follows battle but you are still a slave The meaning of your sad life and master of your mind Is the unkind rhythm of a ruthless funeral drum Day by day, endless fights Night by night, hopeless cries Gloomy light, hungry eyes Creeping time, fading life Whispering, restlessness Bewilderment, presentiment Sails on the horizon excitement on board Is this deliverance? Are we now free? Is this deliverance? I'm coming back home Lost what I have known A stranger in your hometown, no friends Still a slave of our past, no welcome I'm coming back home Lost what I have known Travelling through dark streets, memories of good old times now erased You're undone I'm coming back home
