Oh well, honor for all
Of the big and the small
Well, the taller they stand
Well, the harder they fall

We live for today, but we die for the next
With blood in our veins and the air in our chest
Oh, we step into war with our hearts on the line
Dirt on our boots, it shakes free over time

The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness, it rises, as the sun goes

Love is a distant aroma at best
A withering smile that's stuck deep in your vest
The night air it wraps its fingers around
Your body, it shakes from the now distant sound
Oh, the sound of her voice - a sweet symphony
Over and over until you are free

The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness arises, as the sun goes

Can you feel the new day rising
Climbing up the east horizon?

They controlled us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one
Will start new

Well, we shall not stumble
No, we shall not fall
We shall not crumble
No, we shall stand tall

Well death, it will come
As sure as a night
We will not run
No, we live but to fight
With blood on our hands
And dirt on our knees
We tear all the ones
Who brought the disease

The music, it fades, the violence slows
The darkness, it rises, as the sun goes

Can you feel the new day rising
Climbing up the east horizon?

They controlled us
Now we'll fight through
Each and every one
Will start new
