[Verse 1]
To my father what of your sons?
All of your children
Even the ones
Sent out to martyr
To face the gun
Precious bodies opposed to bombs

[Chorus]
Led on led on
To take the path
Where our bright future
Is in our past

[Verse 2]
To my father what of reason?
Say what you will
Believe what you want
The record shows what we are not
Our true desires
Not our good thoughts

[Chorus]
Led on led on
To take the path
Where our bright future
Is in our past
[Verse 3]
To my father what have you done?
To the children
Born innocent
But come to harm
For dreams of glory
And just a line in history

[Chorus]
Led on led on
To take the path
Where our bright future
Is in our past

[Verse 4]
To my father what good may come?
To let the children
Walk alone
To fear to fail
And need no savior
To be at peace in our true nature

[Chorus]
Lead on Lead on
Oh clear the path
So our bright future
May come to pass
[Outro]
May come to pass
May come to pass
