Solitary |
| Set me aflame and cast me free |
| Away, you wretched world of tethers |
| Through the endless night and day |
| I have never wanted more |
| Always thought that I would stand |
| Before the faceless name of justice |
| Like some law unto myself |
| Like a child of God again |
| And if rain brings winds of change |
| Let it rain on us forever |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| That I have never wanted more |
| With this line I’ll mark the past |
| As a symbol of beginning |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| I have never wanted more |
| In this picture stands a man |
| Far away, alone and distant |
| Like a solitary field |
| In some nameless foreign land |
| All around him points of light |
| Start to dim and cease transmitting |
| Shadows fell on futile games |
| And then there was nothing more |
| Through the screams of falling steel |
| By the light of flares and wisdom |
| All the doubts I could not face |
| All this time I wanted more |
| With a line I mark the past |
| As a symbol of beginning |
| To the Gods whose names we’ve lost |
| And the names who gave in vain |
| And if rain brings winds of change |
| Let it rain on us forever |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| I have never wanted more |
| With this line I’ll mark the past |
| As a symbol of beginning |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| I have never wanted more |
| Set me aflame and cast me free |
| Away, you wretched world of tethers |
| Through the endless night and day |
| I have never wanted more |
| Always thought that I would stand |
| Before the faceless name of justice |
| Like some law unto myself |
| Like a child of God again |
| And if rain brings winds of change |
| Let it rain on us forever |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| I have never wanted more |
| With this line I’ll mark the past |
| As a symbol of beginning |
| I have no doubt from what I’ve seen |
| I have never wanted more |
| Sever the line to the guilty past |
| To the ones who brought us nothing |
| Spoke of futures brave and proud |
| And brought only hate and war |
| Line the roads with hollow praise |
| Mark the land with paper statues |
| Shadows fell on their futile ways |
| And then there was nothing more |
