Orphaned Land lyrics : "Let The Truce Be Known"

As two kids who always spent
Their time and played with toy guns in their hands
There you stood in front of me

They taught me that you're my enemy

And when our eyes have met

We both set sails to death
With guns of grown up men
I fear it might be my last breath


Eye to eye
Our aim is blinded by the sun

Seeking higher ground
To a safe haven I now run


The night had fell on no man's land
This flute was heard from out there in the dark
I knew the words and joined in song

This nightly truce a miracle of hope

We raise our hands and walk

Upright to move towards each other
No guns, no death between
The enemies now turned to brothers


Together on this barren earth
I tell him of my son

No pawns or deadly toys
The morning comes, and we are done


We head to base and end the truce
That lasted through this war of liars
A vision of a better life

Where music drowns the toy gun's fire

Next night I see a shadow and

We both shoot in the name of god
As we fell down our eyes have met
Our friendship ends now in this turmoil of blood
