Alain Ackermann - The Slumber Lyrics

[Intro: Fabienne Enri]
Step by step
We trudge on
On this scarlet road
Adrift and immured
Keen and uncured
Grimly walking the will of the one

[Verse 1: Chrigel Glanzmann]
One foot in front of the other one
On this steep road paved with our blood
Step by step we march a long walk
And breath by breath we just plough on

[Pre-Chorus: Fabienne Enri]
And I long to wake
Come up for air

[Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann & Fabienne Enri]
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand

[Verse 2: Chrigel Glanzmann]
One truth after the other one
Given and served we swallow down
Day by day we drink the blood of our sons
So they will walk this road again
[Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann & Fabienne Enri]
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand

[Post-Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann & Fabienne Enri]
Whitedreaming
One, two! One, two! Forlorn, march!
Linewalking

[Bridge: Chrigel Glanzmann]
Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards

Lift your eyes
I can see the light
March on, we march on
Lift your eyes
You can see it too
March on voidwards
[Pre-Chorus: Fabienne Enri]
And I long to wake
Come up for air

[Chorus: Chrigel Glanzmann & Fabienne Enri]
But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land

But we stagger in slumber
Sleepwalking and lost
The long march we wander
Dreaming of the promised land
And mocked by the death knell at hand
