Standing like the soldiers of a battle of a time beloved All lining up in armies of one Stranded like the lost and gone and vanished like the dark at dawn Forgotten for unholy wars to come... Once again this spangled banner torn and you alone again So many like you ignored, left only to mourn...
The months and years have taken their toll And time has eaten holes In everything and everyone and left nothing to extol
You linger but the ghost is gone Can't you hear the promise of the new and strong? With all anyone could ever want and more and more and more... Once again this mangled banner torn... you hide alone again So many more like you ignored left only for to mourn...
The months and years have taken their toll And time has eaten holes In everything and everyone and left nothing to hold
Below the setting sun, stand, in the shadows, the lonely one by one What they have glows and lights the way another day Before the setting's done Before the winter comes and dying and all that's left succumbs And the crying is silenced of the armies of one
Below the setting sun, stand, in the shadows, the lonely one by one What they have glows and lights the way another day Before the setting's done Before the winter comes and dying and all that's left succumbs And the crying is silenced of the armies of one
Once again this spangled banner torn and you alone...
