Lyrics Monument - Halcyon Days

Monument

Just think of all we have overcome
And the dreams we made ourselves
Watching the setting sun
What we created
Had an atmosphere surreal
Brought out by our suffering
Turned into creativity
This is the moment of clarity
We need to open our eyes and see
Let’s read between the lines
No fucking compromise
Building walls brick by brick
We’ll endure through all hardships
This is our city
This is our home
This is our monument
These are our walls
Hold fast and make waves
One of these days we may
Leave home and move on
To seek out better days
On broken wings, we sway
But our hearts
Still remain
And our hope gives us strength
This is our monument
A long way from home
This path I walk alone
What lies beyond these shores?
The cure to save us all?
Your numbers count for nothing
We’ll carry on keeping our dreams awake
You’re all playing with fire
Behind the veil of lies your spirit breaks
So, let’s crush down corruption
And butcher greed
We are the last resistance
Let’s crush this foul disease
Hold fast and make waves
One of these days we may
Leave home and move on
To seek out better days
On broken wings, we sway
But our hearts
Still remain
And our hope gives us strength
This is our monument
