The Strawbs - Ready (We Are Ready)

'Cause when it was written
Has now come to pass
That which protected
Shatters night glass
The dust of the city
Pours down night blood
If you will survive the fireflies

Ready
Are you ready?
Ready
Are we ready?

Down by the sea
They tend to their flocks
Wilderness feels
A rubble of rocks
Snow piling high
In a wintery storm
We huddle together
To keep ourselves warm

Ready
Are you ready?
Ready
Are we ready?

Those with the power
Have jaws that will bite
They are like wolves
He digs slowly at night
No silver no gold
Shall pay for the sins
Of those who commit them
Nobody wins

Ready
Are you ready?
Ready
Are we ready?

'Cause when it was written
Has now some around
Entrust we are guided
By truth we are bound

Ready
Are you ready?
Ready
Are we ready?

Ready
Are you ready?
Ready
Are we ready?
