Fields (03:27)
Sol Invictus • Let Us Prey
Dresden burning in the night, Coventry is still alight
Above the pain the blood and fire
Comes the sigh: we're ruled by liars
She took me from the village square
Through fields the colour of her hair
Where arrows crossed point to the sky
And fathers, brothers and lovers lie
She stopped and turned to look at me
But in her eyes no hate I see
She said for me and all the others—
No more wars amongst brothers...

English Murder (05:37)
Sol Invictus • Let Us Prey
I wait here by the coast, in the company of ghosts
I sit and watch the world go by, sometimes I just sit and cry

Just another English murder, a poster on the station wall
Just another English murder, Britannia gone rotten to the core

I carry my guilt like a watch, but one that just won't stop
Doomed by the hands of God, whose giggling won't stop

Chorus

By the line she lies dead, beneath a mattress, her deathbed
In England - this septic isle; in England—Maxwell smiles

Chorus

Just another English murder, your photo on my wall
Just another English murder, it doesn't look like you at all in the dark

Gold Is King (03:34)
Sol Invictus • Let Us Prey
Gold is king, and the wind blows misery
Gold is king, and the wind blows usury

A falling leaf from a poisoned tree
A fetid river flows into an empty sea

The lute is cracked as is the spinner's wheel
A broken plough stands on a barren field

The sun is dying, dark comes the dawn
And in the womb, the child stillborn

Gold is king, and the wind blows misery
Gold is king, and the wind blows usury

Sol Invictus

Sol Invictus are an English apocalyptic folk/neofolk project led by Tony Wakeford. The reviews portray Wakeford’s work as thematically focused on apocalypse, spiritual and cultural decline, Europe, tradition, and a combative, fatalistic worldview, evolving from early industrial/electronic elements toward acoustic folk with recurring returns to epic, martial intensity.
