We all stand in silence for the wasted and gone Sign that we stand here alone Nothing to say when the evil finally burns One warrior standing, through a thousand years strong Our past lives still shining, the starlight reveals Our glory remembered, with

Left their letters in the sand Such waste of life Dreams of freedom turned to dust how many wasted lives How many dreams did fade away Broken promises They won't be coming home Oh mothers wipe your tears

The creature lives I saw the creature fall Into the swamp from which he spawned I heard them laugh and say They never liked him anyway I tried to talk to them To help you on your feet again They laughed and said to me The swamp is right where I should be

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives I walk alone, I walk alone My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will

This world was made for all men We pledge allegiance All our lives To the magic colors Red, blue and white But we all must be given The liberty that we defend For with justice not for all men History will repeat again

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies This is the dawning of the rest of our lives Hear the sound of the falling rain Coming down like an Armageddon flame (hey!) The ones who died without a name Hear the dogs howlin' out of key
