Wayfarer - The Iron Horse (Gallows Frontier, Act II)

Lyrics to The Iron Horse (Gallows Frontier, Act II) by Wayfarer

Lo, and behold... The reaper doth approach. The iron-clad stallion - its pallid complexion concealed. Forward on, steel legs run. A new lord lays claim to the land. From bastard god, to steam powered daemon. The apostles follow in the cavalcade. Reavers and raiders, hunters and harbingers A path is struck - extinction begins The iron-born hellion - its burning eyes survey the killing fields. Permanence, and negation. The veins of the Republic expand. The company revels in their champion On his back, the west will be won An inferno, fed of enslavement and starvation There is always more coal for the flames. Silence becomes the nations that stood in the path. The gallows engulf the settlements that follow its wrath. The forgotten hands that struck down the ties are swallowed by the frontier. Joining the peoples, pushed deep below The new nation will learn the fear. Violence begets fear and tragedy. As the Iron horse sow, so shall it’s riders reap. As iron goes So pile the skulls the Gallow frontier, Will never forget
