Oh well, honor for all
Of the big and the small
Well, the taller they stand
Well, the harder they fall
We live for today but we die for the next
With blood in our veins and the air in our chest
Oh, we step into war with our hearts on the line
Dirt on our boots, it shakes free over time
The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness, it rises, as the sun goes
Love is a distant aroma at best,
A withering smile that's stuck deep in your vest.
The night air it wraps its fingers around,
Your body, it shakes from the now distant sound,
Oh, the sound of her voice - a sweet symphony,
Played over and over until you are free.
The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness arises, as the sun goes
Can you feel the new day rising,
Climbing up the east horizon?
They controlled us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one
Will start new
Well, we shall not stumble
No, we shall not fall
We shall not crumble
No, we shall stand tall
Oh well, death, it will come
As sure as a night
We will not run
No, we live but to fight
With blood on our hands
And dirt on our knees
We tear at the ones,
We brought a disease
The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness, it rises, as the sun goes
Can you feel the new day rising,
Climbing up the east horizon?
They controlled us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one
Will start new
