Anthem |
| We are born of stone |
| And etched by wind |
| Cast aside to live or die |
| We are the pawns in our own game |
| Like refugees |
| Of silent war |
| We step on ever-shifting ground |
| Promoting what we undermine |
| For countless days |
| We walked alone |
| Directionless and vulnerable |
| Sitting targets wearing smiles |
| No one of us will go unscathed |
| By private battles we have braved |
| A vicious circle we have built |
| Constructed from our shame and guilt |
| The flags we wave |
| Are set afire |
| To warm the bones of infant dreams |
| Even as our present is set ablaze |
| The tinderbox |
| We sit upon |
| Decays in churning mists of fog |
| And crumbles down into the sea |
| No one of us will go unscathed |
| By private battles we have braved |
| A vicious circle we have built |
| Constructed from our shame and guilt |
| We lie embraced |
| In the arms of dawn |
| The fading echoes of pointless time |
| Statuettes of ignorance |
| And even as |
| The clock hand sweeps |
| We pay no mind to where we are |
| Surely we’re not allowed to die |
| No one of us will go unscathed |
| By private battles we have braved |
| A vicious circle we have built |
| Constructed from our shame and guilt |
