Bleak Harvest

[Verse 1] Fleas in the cloth, death in the thread Shadows grow where the living once tread Doors marked red, mercy denied Prayers fall cold as children die [Instrumental break] [Chorus] Bleak harvest — reaping the breath Bleak harvest — fields of death Bleak harvest — no escape Eyam sealed by the hand of fate [Verse 2] Boundary stone, the circle drawn Trade for gold at the break of dawn Bread in the well, left in fear No man crosses the dying year [Instrumental break] [Chorus] Bleak harvest — reaping the breath Bleak harvest — fields of death Bleak harvest — no escape Eyam sealed by the hand of fate [Bridge] Bells don’t ring, the silence screams Graves are filled where hope once gleamed One by one, they fade away To save the world, they chose to stay [Guitar solo] [Bridge] Bleak harvest… Eyam falls… But death stops at their walls [Instrumental break] [Chorus] Bleak harvest — reaping the breath Bleak harvest — fields of death Bleak harvest — no escape Eyam sealed by the hand of fate
