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 |
