Revolutionary Spirit Lyrics by The Wild Swans

Revolutionary Spirit (Single)

1982

[Verse 1]
Lost in the delta of Venus, lost in a welter of shame
Deep in the forest of evil we embark on the new crusade
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
And there where hope is dust so strange and absolute
Nestling in sweet sorrow is the saviour of our youth
[Chorus]
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my heir-apparent the revolutionary spirit is here
[Verse 2]
Sons defy their fathers; lose their way deep in the mist
Their hearts like alabaster crack and crumble when they kiss
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
[Chorus]
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
All is quiet where angels fear
Oh my heir-apparent the revolutionary spirit is here
[Verse]
Courage my sad companion mute in silence you’ll find no relief
Faith is the counter-poison the power compels you to flee from grief
Cease your foolish plea we have come to banish the land
I stand as Saint Sebastian with love for a higher command
And there where hope is dust so strange and absolute
Nestling in sweet sorrow is the saviour of our youth
[Chorus]
All is quiet where the angels fear
Oh my blood relations the revolutionary spirit is here
