The Prophecy (Part I)

from The Aftermath of '96 by Abi Moore

/

lyrics

Winter’s fallen across the land
Gripped in the witch’s icy hand
Living in hell ‘til the end of time
Under her spell, we fall behind……we fall behind

They say that Aslan is on the move
But legends here are never proved
Will he come and bring us light?
Do we run or stay and fight?

‘Cause no-one wants to live in sin no more
Waiting for the ones from War Drobe Door
If it’s true we’ll never know
So we just listen to the snow…

Winter lasts forever
Winter always, but Christmas never
‘Cause in our saviour, she won’t believe
She tries to ignore The Prophecy

But if we lose grasp of the sacred word
What chance do we have of a just world?
If we see his coming as a lie
We may as well lay down and die…

I hear sleigh bells warning
Through the blizzard, there’s a figure forming
Silence your children so they won’t be heard
‘Cause he who speaks of truth, to stone is turned

The fight against evil was never easy
But what is prophesied must come true
Aslan, I need you here- won’t you come and free me?
Don’t let me die without ever seeing you…

I hear tell of freedom
There’s a whisper in the trees
And they say in the North the snow is melting
And I could almost swear that soon it could be spring
…It could be spring

Abi Moore UK

Americana / Roots-Rock artist from Nottingham. Abi's 4th studio album No More Chasing marks a raucous return after 10 years.

"Impactful, gritty, & above all, brimming with conviction. Abi's stripped back, stomp 'n' holler sound instantly took us to KT Tunstall, while her rootsy, distorted Americana guitar twangs have a delicious White Stripes flavour." RCM
