Lyrics

Stand and fight, we do consider Reminded of an inner pact between us, that's seen as we go And ride there, in motion To fields in depth of honour, defending Stand the marchers soaring talons Peaceful lives will not deliver freedom, fighting we know Destroy oppression, the point to reaction As leaders look to you, attacking Choose and renounce, throwing chains to the floor Kill or be killing, faster sins correct the flow Casting giant shadows off fast penetrating force To alter via the war that's seen, as friction spans the spirits wrath ascending to redeem Wars that shout in screams of anguish Power spent passion bespoils our soul receiver, surely we know In glory we rise to offer Create our freedom, a word we utter A word Words cause our banner, victorious our day Will silence be promised as violence displays The curse increased, we fight the power and live by it by day Our gods awake in thunderous roars and guide the Leader's hand in paths of glory to the cause Listen, should we fight forever Knowing as we do know, fear destroys Listen, should we leave our children Listen, our lives stare in silence Help us now Listen, your friends have been broken They tell us of your poison, now we know Kill them, give them as they give us Slay them, burn their children's laughter On to hell The fist will run, grasp metal to gun The spirit sings in crashing tones, we gain the battle drum Our cries will shrill, the air will moan and crash into the dawn The pen won't stay the demon's wings The hour approaches, pounding out the Devil's sermon Soon, oh soon the light Pass within and soothe this endless night And wait here for you Our reason to be here Soon, oh soon the time All we move to gain will reach and calm Our heart is open Our reason to be here Long ago, set into rhyme Soon, oh soon the light Ours to shape for all time, ours the right The sun will lead us Our reason to be here Soon, oh soon the light Ours to shape for all time, ours the right The sun will lead us Our reason to be here
