Shackles of Tomorrow

[Verse] By yon beacon bright we labor Futur's toil doth ne'er waver Knaves we are in shackles glare Day and night with none to spare [Verse 2] Steel and iron bind us tight In this wyrd unending plight Grim the path we tread with care Endless graft without repair [Chorus] Toiling in future's dawn Ne'er to rest till hope is gone Chains that clank and hearts forlorn In this realm where dreams are torn [Bridge] Suns above in skies o' grey Morrow ne'er a kinder day Blades that cut and wind doth scorn Days repeat from dusk till morn [Verse 3] Hark the sound of clinking chains In dusky fields where sorrow reigns Taskmaster’s whip it leads our way Ne'er to see a brighter day [Chorus] Toiling in future's dawn Ne'er to rest till hope is gone Chains that clank and hearts forlorn In this realm where dreams are torn
