New Model Army - Winter Lyrics






Well I dreamed that I was running, through a wilderness of plenty
And I could hear the hunt behind me, getting closer, getting closer
And I knew that the end was coming and I wished that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

And now the mercury keeps rising, like the sap and the blood and the oceans
And the asphalt acres melting, in the fetid air of poison
And I can hear the soldiers coming and I wish that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

I felt them tugging at my shoulder to come and join in the celebrations
To mark the triumph of the Emperor, the all-conquering everlasting summer
And the streets were awash with the blood of the innocents, sacrificed to slaughter
The crowds all drunk on power and madness as the noise grew ever louder
And I could hear the knives being sharpened and I wished that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

Let all the sins of the past be buried in the frozen ground
Let the last of the vengeance fires die
The back wings flying high above the skeleton trees
Disappear into the white

So let the weary land be rested and the killing season over
Let the shadows stretch forever in the light of burnished silver
For I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    Well I dreamed that I was running, through a wilderness of plenty
    And I could hear the hunt behind me, getting closer, getting closer
    And I knew that the end was coming and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    And now the mercury keeps rising, like the sap and the blood and the oceans
    And the asphalt acres melting, in the fetid air of poison
    And I can hear the soldiers coming and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    I felt them tugging at my shoulder to come and join in the celebrations
    To mark the triumph of the Emperor, the all-conquering everlasting summer
    And the streets were awash with the blood of the innocents, sacrificed to slaughter
    The crowds all drunk on power and madness as the noise grew ever louder
    And I could hear the knives being sharpened and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    Let all the sins of the past be buried in the frozen ground
    Let the last of the vengeance fires die
    The back wings flying high above the skeleton trees
    Disappear into the white

    So let the weary land be rested and the killing season over
    Let the shadows stretch forever in the light of burnished silver
    For I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

  30. J.... M....

    Saw Justin et al live in Malmö last night - bloody brilliant - the energy, the new songs. Justin sounds good. Great gig - stood front and center - got a handshake from the man himself, and a setlist - solid night - more than that is what NMA gives, the anger, the hope, the need to keep persisting and resisting. See you here with the Malmö Family again soon...

  31. J.... M....

    When I dreamed that I was running
    Through a wilderness of Winty
    And I could hear the hound pre-time me
    Getting closer, getting closer

    And I knew the fiend was coming
    And I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the cold wind
    Bring me the winter

    And now the Mercury keeps rising
    At the Saturn burdening the oceans
    And the Ash build take a smelting
    In the fetid day of poison

    And I could hear the soldiers coming
    And I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the cold wind
    Bring me the winter

    I built and took in at my shoulder
    To come and join in the celebrations
    The marked jail for the Emperor
    The old con-query never lasting

    So whenever we sit full wash
    With a glow of the innocence
    Sacrifice to slaughter
    And the crowds full-tuned with our pluck
    Is this the noise grew ever louder?

    And I can hear their eyes be chop at dinner
    And wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the cold wind
    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the winter

    And all the sins of the past
    Be buried in the frozen ground
    And the last of the vengeance fires die
    The black wings flying high
    Above the skeleton trees
    Disappear in the white

    So let the weary land be rested
    And the killing season over
    At the shadows stretched forever
    In the light to burnished silver
    All I feel it to consequence
    And I wish that it was over
    Yes, I feel it to consequence
    And I wish that it was over

    Yes, I feel it to consequence
    And I wish that it was over

    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the cold wind

    Bring me the snowfall
    Bring me the cold wind

    Bring me the winter

    J.... M....

    Some of your lyrics are wrong,I'm afraid man. It's not "I built and took in at my shoulder", it's " I felt them tugging at my shoulder "

    J.... M....

    A Lot of it is wrong...
    Here´s the right lyrics:
    Well I dreamed that I was running, through a wilderness of plenty
    And I could hear the hunt behind me, getting closer, getting closer
    And I knew that the end was coming and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    And now the mercury keeps rising, like the sap and the blood and the oceans
    And the asphalt acres melting, in the fetid air of poison
    And I can hear the soldiers coming and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    I felt them tugging at my shoulder to come and join in the celebrations
    To mark the triumph of the Emperor, the all-conquering everlasting summer
    And the streets were awash with the blood of the innocents, sacrificed to slaughter
    The crowds all drunk on power and madness as the noise grew ever louder
    And I could hear the knives being sharpened and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    Let all the sins of the past be buried in the frozen ground
    Let the last of the vengeance fires die
    The back wings flying high above the skeleton trees
    Disappear into the white

    So let the weary land be rested and the killing season over
    Let the shadows stretch forever in the light of burnished silver
    For I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    J.... M....

    the right text of the song

    Well I dreamed that I was running, through a wilderness of plenty
    And I could hear the hunt behind me, getting closer, getting closer
    And I knew that the end was coming and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    And now the mercury keeps rising, like the sap and the blood and the oceans
    And the asphalt acres melting, in the fetid air of poison
    And I can hear the soldiers coming and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    I felt them tugging at my shoulder to come and join in the celebrations
    To mark the triumph of the Emperor, the all-conquering everlasting summer
    And the streets were awash with the blood of the innocents, sacrificed to slaughter
    The crowds all drunk on power and madness as the noise grew ever louder
    And I could hear the knives being sharpened and I wished that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    Let all the sins of the past be buried in the frozen ground
    Let the last of the vengeance fires die
    The back wings flying high above the skeleton trees
    Disappear into the white

    So let the weary land be rested and the killing season over
    Let the shadows stretch forever in the light of burnished silver
    For I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
    Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

    They keep the art of music alive, old school at its best.

  33. C.... D....

    2.... ....

    Yes. :-)

    2.... ....

    Wouldn't ot be a turn up for the books tho?!

    2.... ....

    Justin is a true Wildling. King beyond the wall, The king who brought down the wall.

  46. M.... R....

    An excellent sound not quite sure I'm ready just yet for winter but that's just me

    M.... R....

    This isn't about wintertime as such - it's clearly about the global climate catastrophe and a world in which winter will be a distant, but cherished memory.

  47. S.... s....

    stunning album (again..............) and great lyrics as usual. see you on the road guys (again............). faces to the wind boys............

    S.... s....

    I arrived here through the mission. I'd like more where do I start

    S.... s....

    May I suggest "Between Dog and Wolf" (2013), "Thunder and Consolation" (1989) and "Vengeance" (1984)? The Mission were one of the first "alternative" acts that I got into. You have good taste.

    S.... s....

    @beavisbonce whatever. i like the mission early period only. of new model army i love everything they did. but i know many nma family people who like the mission and all the good stuff for sure. mattare of taste for sure. and for me also the fact that i know the band and i love what justin writes and the way he does it.

    S.... s....

    yes but they did something good in the very beginning and they stopped unable to make good music for 30 years and more

    S.... s....

    SoM pre 85 were an excellent band but they never had the raw gut wrenching passion of NMA .......just my thoughts

  48. K.... D....

    Judy and Alex!!!

  49. s.... ....

    CA BR OOON

  50. P.... S....

    Absolutley fantastic track from a throughly excellent album

  51. J.... C....

    Can't wait till October, going to Germany to see them for the first time... Been a fan forever!

    J.... C....

    never too late

  52. e.... 1....

    Again, it is pure genius, genuine, honest, and timeless excellence. I have listened to NMA since the beginning and I honestly think they are producing albums that are as timeless as anything they have produced. Fresh as anything! Keep them coming Justin and Co!! See you all in Leeds in November with my wife and 7 year old girl :-)

    e.... 1....

    amazing I enver brought my daughter to a gig and she wants to sleep every evening with Marakech and she is born with Justin s solo album as background............and I follow the band since 20 years , no 27

  53. j.... d....

    Great track! I've loved NMA for 25 years - they're timeless. Wish I could have a pint with Justin one day.

    j.... d....

    Go to his Justin Sullivan acoustic gigs when available and you might do. My daughter and I did a couple of years ago and he came and sat in the bar after and chatted over a pint. Great guy, so talented.

    j.... d....

But also they gave me a goody bag of there merc ive loved this band since i was 9 But your right on that one.

    j.... d....

    Cup of tea maybe

    j.... d....
