Hateflames - 'Watch The Children Pray' (Metal Church cover)

In a darkened graveyard glows a light.
I see it shine there every night.
I know somewhere there's a hidden door.
There's an answer here we must explore.

No, I'll not submit to reason.
I'll sit and watch the seasons change.

We watch the children pray.
Save us God today,
Come whatever may.

We hold our fate and make the choice,
But we'll not listen to that still small voice.
Are we just crazy, out of our minds?
Wish this were someplace, another time.

We watch the children pray.
Save us God today,
Come whatever may.

And I know we're going
So far away from this wretched life we lead.
With open arms meet catastrophe,
In the valley of the damned we'll be.

And I know we're going
So far away from this wretched life we lead.
With open arms meet catastrophe,
In the valley of the damned we'll be.

We watch the children pray.
Save us God today,
Come whatever may.

And now to life we say goodbye.
I know the when but not the why.
Our nation's blood spills on the ground.
Our lives go out without a sound.



Οι Hateflames μας έρχονται από την Αθήνα. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ εξαετίας και χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως «Heavy / Power / Thrash Metal the US Way». Τον Μάρτιο του 2019 κυκλοφόρησε το (αυτοχρηματοδοτούμενο) ντεμπούτο τους υπό τον τίτλο "Tomorrow Erased", με τον διάδοχό του να είναι προ των πυλών.

Πριν από αυτό όμως η Ελληνική μπάντα ηχογράφησε (και φιλμογράφησε) μία διασκευή στον ύμνο των Metal Church "Watch The Children Pray", η οποία είναι αφιερωμένη στην μνήμη του (τραγουδιστή των MC από το 1988 έως το 1995 και από το 2015 μέχρι πέρυσι) Mike Howe, ο οποίος απεβίωσε (αυτοκτόνησε) το περασμένο καλοκαίρι (26 Ιουλίου 2021) σε ηλικία 56 ετών...
