Weavers of the Web
Manilla Road Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

1st verse
Cries will fill the dead of night
Screaming for the morning light.
Insane maneuvers of the mind
Shall sow the wrath of all mankind.
In crystal towers off the shore
I've seen the light of evermore
But politics has barred the door
And left us no way out but war.
Chorus
It could happen today
Unless we learn to change our ways
Warlords lead us to death,
They're Weavers of the Web.
2nd verse
My soul calls out to all of life
To stop this hell and end the strife
Stand up for your humane rights
Reject the web will all your might.
Inside the charms of ancient lore
There's magik truth and much much more,
But new beliefs have slammed the door,
Shut out the light of Evermore.
Chorus
It could happen today
Unless we learn to change our ways.




Warlords lead us to death,
They're Weavers of the Web.
