lyrics

I remember the way
You burned us to the ground,
Ripped in two our hearts

But who am I to take a stand?
But who am I to change the course of history?

I see the flames already biting through our skin
I see a tomb with my name carved into the side

I, I just can’t stop
Confusions in time


Running heartlessly
For fighting won’t replace the endless flow
That you are taking part in
Fighting your own wishes
Oh I fear you’ll never even know...
You have a choice

You have a choice
You live, you die a part of the earth
It will not set you free

Warlords conquer all within their grasp
Nations turn to men abandoned
Every bond of kinship broken
Bloody conflict face to face
This is where we all break down
This is where we fall to our knees
If you still trust your flag, then show it
If you still are a man, then hide it

And when there’s nothing left
But shattered minds, broken hearts
Well then we’ll judge how meaningless it was
To value pride

Running heartlessly
For fighting won’t replace the endless flow
That you are taking part in
Fighting your own wishes
Oh I fear you’ll never even know...
You have a choice

Just to bite down, let them know how bitter
The taste of failure can become
From here, you have a choice

If you still trust your flag, then show it
If you still are a man, then hide it

I can feel your hands clawing
I can feel your teeth biting
I can feel your hands clawing
