Fear And Anguish

None of us will soon forget
The day before those things arrived
In the Churchyard on the hill
A man had just buried his bride
She turned that day, alive
There's a silhouette on the horizon
Like an evil stain on the rising sun
And as it approached, we saw it was her
And her eyes were red
She said "you're all dead!"
The collapsed down to the ground
As if somebody cut her strings

Fear and anguish reigns
Ever since they came
We used to walk the streets of town
Now we know, we never will again

Suddenly over the hill
A dog lets out and anguished howl
There ain't a beast this side of hell
That could've brought on what befell that hound
He was torn from limb to limb
There's an evil stench creeping on the wind
Reeks of pestilence mixed with dead and sin
From over the range that is where we found
Scattered on the ground, fifty heads of steer
But what's real queer
We searched all around
No other part was found!

Fear and anguish reigns
Ever since they came
We used to walk the streets of town
Now we know we never will again

Some say from the skies they fell
Others claim they came straight from hell
Some swear they are from the dark
Yet others they believe they came...
From our angry hearts

And tonight we ride
Out of desperation
From the mountainside
Towards the reservation
See if they might know
How to stand the tide
Yet when we arrived
They turn their heads
And the chief said
"Now you know how we felt
When the white man came!"

Fear and anguish reigns
Ever since they came
We used to walk the streets of town
Now we know we never will again
