lyrics

Courage and honor
Paupers and scholars
Deadbeats and fathers
And young men and daughters
Commencing a mission with no hope in sight
No one had known the true strength of their might
Sacrifice stained with no grace for our toil
While fathers and brothers are still warm in the soil
Have given their life
Seen formidable strife
To keep you alive

Sounds asleep in their earthen sheets
An army disarming their peace
There's a call to retreat
To infinity
To divinity

In ivory towers, your dismissive power
Your void postulations have rotted and soured
My comrades were hung while you were stealing our funds
And loving your neighbor through the end of a gun
I've given the orders
I've pined over soldiers
Defended every indefensible order
And when the day's done, you can say that we've won
But winning that day was how fast you could run
